             Summary: Pre-init minimum number of connections
                 Key: HTTPCORE-686
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-686
             Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: HttpCore NIO
            Reporter: Anurag Agarwal


Most of the applications suffer from a problem of cold start where we don't 
have connections created at the start of the application and thus the first few 
requests suffer by making a lot of connections.

During deployment this can even pile up a lot of not completed request and may 
lead to losses.

One suggestion I had in mind is to create few connections before the 
application has begun from the intended endpoints.

Also sometimes the nautre of your traffic can be spiky in which scenario 
opening and closing a lot of connections also doesn't make sense.

 

These can be solved with either or both of the suggestions:
 # Have a minConnectionPerHost policy in connection pool which won't let 
connection pool for a host to go below this number or make a new connection 
when it does. At the start of the http client these minimum connections will be 
created to the end services.
 # Provide an easy mechanism for use to create connections via 
ConnectionManager. Currently in PoolingAsyncConnectionManager one must give 
ConnectionInitiator which make it difficult to directly use the connection 
manager to create connections.
