We are using JMeter to test a Tomcat servlet application, and would like to
be able to test using persistent connections. 

[The clients would normally connect/login once, and then re-use the same
connection for subsequent requests.]

However, there are one or two problems with doing this, not least the use of
the default Sun implementation of HttpURLConnection, which is not
particularly well-suited to connection re-use.

There are a couple of alternatives that look feasible:

HTTPClient 0.3-3     http://www.innovation.ch/java/HTTPClient/
HttpClient 2.0alpha3 http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/index.html

The former seems to be a lot simpler to use, as far as I can tell.

Just wondering if anyone else has looked at this before I go any further?

==

Also, does anyone know why the System property "java.protocol.handler.pkgs"
is set by SSLManager.java and SSLManagerCommand.java? 

This currently precludes the use of HTTPClient 0.3-3 as a plug-in
replacement for the basic Sun implementation.
