When creating a new Vault connection via the API using the ConnectionManager, I understood it's best to always close/logout the connection when you're done or closing your application.

During development, sometimes the application crashes, which probably leaves a connection open.

What are the consequences of these leftover connections and are they automatically closed/cleaned up after a certain timeout?

Unused connections time out. Developing with your Autodesk account on a single computer does not pull multiple licenses, so connections left open won't cause any issues before the timeout, either.

Thanks for your response and the confirmation on the timeout Markus. I thought that maybe too many leftover open connections could influence server performance in someway.
