My httpclient-based application is leaving connections in a CLOSE_WAIT
state. I am running HttpClient 3.0, using a single instance of
HttpClient and MultiThreadedConnectionManager. Each request created its
own HttpState and PostMethod objects, which are used to call a Tomcat
servlet. 

 

>From what I have read, I can force connections to close through various
methods. However, are sockets in a CLOSE_WAIT state really harmful?
