I don't know why it would fail in this case, unless the server gets some
kind of indication that the network link on the client went down and
terminates the TCP connection without the client noticing. You could
also try installing a CURLOPT_SOCKOPTFUNCTION and enabling TCP keepalive on
the socket, like the curl --keepalive-time option does.
