We do need to test HTTPS, so I tried the new HTTP Request HTTPClient (Alpha). It doesn't show this behaviour. I'm using the number of used local ports as a measure, something like netstat|grep https|wc -l to watch it. It's promising, the number of connections permanently corresponds the number of threads. Some results I got, using a thread group, 10 threads, iterating one minute:
HTTP Request: between 9 and 10 connections, 1260 requests. HTTP Request with keep-alive: growing to 389 connections, 1027 requests. HTTP Request HTTPClient (Alpha): between 9 and 10 connections, 1225 requests. HTTP Request HTTPClient (Alpha) with keep-alive: 10 connections, 1267 requests.
What restrictions do I have to expect, when using the HTTP Request HTTPClient-Alpha? Did anybody recognize bugs? Or is it allready used a lot?
Thanks.
