-----------------------------------------------

Michael,

Without additional input I will have no choice but to close the issue as 
invalid. Could you please clarify what exactly you find contradictory and how 
you would like to amend the statements?

> // The underlying HTTP connection is still held by the response object
> // to allow the response content to be streamed directly from the network 
> socket.
> // In order to ensure correct deallocation of system resources
> // the user MUST either fully consume the response content  or abort request
> // execution by calling CloseableHttpResponse#close().

> The difference between closing the content stream and closing the response is 
> that the former will attempt to keep the underlying connection alive by 
> consuming the entity content while the latter immediately shuts down and 
> discards the connection.
> {quote}
> This is a contradiction. The code which follows in the quick start is correct 
> but not the comment. Even if I consume the response content the underlying 
> connection is still help open.
