Connection.close() is a synchronous operation. It performs a protocol 
level handshake and ensures that all commands/publishes sent on the 
connection have reached the server.

Wben a connection is blocked, rabbit isn't reading from the connection 
(that's what blocking means), so therefore cannot respond to the close 
requests from the client.
