HAProxy is not affected by the HTTP/2 Rapid Reset Attack (CVE-2023-44487)
I wanted to try it out just now but hit a roadblock immediately - it cannot automatically obtain and maintain TLS certificates. You have to use an external client (e.g. acme.sh), set up a cron to check/renew them, and poke HAProxy to reload them if necessary. I'm way past doing this in 2023.

I turn on 1 relatively cheap cloud server to process DNS, https and stratum connections and route them via haproxy to one of N miner servers described above.

35M Hot Dogs: Benchmarking Caddy vs. Nginx
It does not, because HAProxy does not perform any disk access at runtime and thus would be unable to persist the certificates anywhere. Disks accesses can be unpredictably slow and would block the entire thread which is not something you want when handling hundreds of thousands of requests per second.
See this issue and especially the comment from Lukas Tribus: https://github.com/haproxy/haproxy/issues/1864
Disclosure: Community contributor to HAProxy, I help maintain HAProxy's issue tracker.
