different connection reuse strategy would reduce number of open connections
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HTTPCLIENT-1108
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1108
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: HttpClient
Affects Versions: 4.1.1
Reporter: Jon Moore
Assignee: Jon Moore
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 4.1.2
Currently, the ThreadSafeClientConnManager reuses persistent connections in a
round-robin fashion: when the connection is checked back into the pool, it is
added to a queue of available connections for later use. This has the perhaps
unintended effect that the client may keep open more connections than needed,
because the "last used" time keeps getting updated and none of the connections
can get reclaimed via closeIdleConnections().
Exchanging the queue (FIFO) for a stack (LIFO) would result in extra
connections actually becoming idle for long enough to be reclaimed.
I have a working patch for this; just need to get my act together to get it in.
