Anurag Agarwal commented on HTTPCLIENT-2180:
--------------------------------------------
Yes the only problem with this approach is that you don't know if the external
servers we are trying to connect, support the extra methods.
Like google supports GET and HEAD. In case we use OPTIONS or POST, it sends 405
and in HEADER Allow it states which all methods are allowed by the google
server, but it does the same for POST and other methods, so it is subjective to
implementation.
Let me try and see if I can use the AsyncConnExec and InternalAsyncExecRuntime
to my advantage.

> Key: HTTPCLIENT-2180
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-2180
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: HttpClient (async), HttpClient (classic)
> Reporter: Anurag Agarwal
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: volunteers-wanted
> Fix For: Future
>
>
> 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.
