I noticed that after clone , threadContext is null, do you see a reason why it should be copied from parent ?

But this may have bigger code impacts and there is the issue of different conc pool size. For now, if pool is 5, we have 5 HttpClient created and they are destroyed when Executor is shutdown. > > But then, what about connection close?
