How it is done?

Hi,

In the LVS-direct Routing the virtual server takes care only of half 
of the connection, the real server directly replies to the client without
going through the virtual server.
I was wondering how does the virtual server know that a connection is over
does it timeout after a certain time? 
and if a timeout is used how can we know tha optimal time to timeout a 
connection without flooding our memories.
