Sergiu Prodan updated HTTPCORE-433:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
This issue was observed after upgrading to httpclient v4.5.2 and httpcore 
v4.4.4. 

When configuring the PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager, I have set 
validateAfterInactivity to 1ms as this is the only way of maintaining the old 
behaviour, i.e. checking every connection if is stale before using it.

I have observed a performance degradation under high load when the httpclient 
is shared between multiple threads. This httpclient is used only for one route.

After taking a thread dump, one thing that got my attention was several threads 
waiting for same ReentrantLock instance while trying to 
AbstractConnPool#getPoolEntryBlocking/AbstractConnPool#release. The 
ReentrantLock instance in question was owned by another thread performing 
CPool#validate.

It seems to me that performing this stale check inside the region protected by 
this lock is unnecessary and also induces a big performance hit when using the 
httpclient from multiple threads.

I've atached a thread dump of a test application that reproduces this 
behaviour. ReentrantLock in question in this thread dump is 0x0000000706e8b9a8 
and is owned by Thread-4.

threads and has the following settings:
        clientConnManager.setMaxTotal(100);
        clientConnManager.setDefaultMaxPerRoute(100);
