Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCORE-311:
--------------------------------------------

I thought the whole idea of using polling was to avoid making changes to the 
connection pool code. I think the right thing to do is to get rid of polling 
and simply copy pool stats to the local variables guarded by a separate mutex 
every time the pool state mutates (stuff gets leased or released). The stat 
variables then could be accessed without having to contend for the global pool 
lock. Does this idea make sense?

> The org.apache.http.pool.ConnPoolControl interface exposes valuable runtime 
> metrics for a connection pool's individual routes and global values. However, 
> it uses a bean class, org.apache.http.pool.PoolStats, to exposes the global 
> values. This is problematic when trying to monitor these connection pool 
> values at runtime since PoolStats is not Serializable and many jmx monitoring 
> agents only support primitive values well. The value of the PoolStats class 
> seems to be in trying to minimize the amount of locking of the pool required 
> to get stats.
> The attached patch includes an interface that extends ConnPoolControl to add 
> four methods to return the primitive value for global pool stats. There's an 
> implementation of this interface that will delegate all of the 
> ConnPoolControl methods to a delegate instance, and support retrieving the 
> primitive global values by periodically retrieving and caching a PoolStats 
> instance internally. This minimizes the amount of locking required while also 
> making it easy to monitor these values.
> It would probably be ideal to incorporate this functionality directly into 
> the existing ConnPoolControl interface, but the attached code provides a 
> non-invasive way to achieve the desired effect.
