Oleg Kalnichevski resolved HTTPCLIENT-2323.
-------------------------------------------
    Resolution: Not A Problem

> When using HttpClientBuilder without setting a user agent an expensive

>             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: HttpClient (classic)

>         Environment: Docker image using maven:3.9.1-eclipse-temurin-17-focal 
> running in kubernetes

> We have an application that has a fairly high outbound http call rate using 
> Apache Http Client. We have been profiling it recently using the async 
> profiler and I noticed that almost 10% of our cpu time is spent in 
> VersionInfo.getUserAgent.
> We use HttpClientBuilder for each call (this seems the correct way to be able 
> to use different connection pools and settings).
> I am guessing because we do not explicitly set the user agent that the client 
> will go determine the client version and java version and use this... the 
> automatically generated user agent in our case looks like:
> {code:java}
> User-Agent: Apache-HttpClient/4.5.12 (Java/17.0.7){code}
> I have attached the profiler flame graph. I would imagine something like this 
> could be checked once and used for any further calls. I have not tested it 
> yet but I am hoping a workaround would be to make sure to set a user agent 
> and then none of this classloader stuff would need to happen for each call.
