Nikola Bekcic updated HTTPCORE-702:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
h3. Background

To manage the life cycle and re-use HTTP connections we are using 
*PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager* with the maximum limit of connections 
defined on a per route basis as well as in total.

Using PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager and built-in Java management 
utilities, I want to provide our users with the option to dynamically re-size 
the connection pool (up and/or down) at runtime without redeploying or 
restarting the application with a new configuration.
h3. Issue description

During testing, we found that decreasing the maximum limit of connection per 
route does not have (an immediate) effect on the pool size i.e maximum number 
of connections per route is staying the same (potentially for a very long time).

E.g. let's use only two routes where the default maximum connections per route 
are 10 and the maximum total is 20. At some point, the maximum number of 
connections per route will be riched and the number of allocated connections 
(available + leased) will be 10. Now, let's say that we need to decrease the 
maximum number of connections per route to 5, for any reason. Doing that by 
calling either _PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager#setDefaultMaxPerRoute(int)_ 
or _PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager#setMaxPerRoute(HttpRoute, int)_ will not 
change the pool size and the maximum number of connections per route will stay 
the same (potentially for a very long time).

This is the sample of the pool stats printed after changing +maxPerRoute+ to 5:
{noformat}
{somehost1:8983={"available":4,"leased":6,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":1,"leased":9,"max":5,"pending":2}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":4,"leased":6,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":2}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":5,"leased":5,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":4}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":5,"leased":5,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":4}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":7,"leased":3,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":5}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":9,"leased":1,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":5}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":9,"leased":1,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":6}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":8,"leased":2,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":6}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":9,"leased":1,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":6}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":8,"leased":2,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":7}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":8,"leased":2,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":6}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":8,"leased":2,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":6}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":9,"leased":1,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":0,"leased":10,"max":5,"pending":6}}
{somehost1:8983={"available":9,"leased":1,"max":5,"pending":0}, 
somehost2:8080={"available":1,"leased":9,"max":5,"pending":6}}} {noformat}
As you can see, not only that the number of allocated connections per route is 
still 10, but also very often the number of leased connection is higher than 5. 
In my opinion, this is not what is expected and not really in favor of the 
principle of least surprise.
