Could be way off target here, as I'm a bit of a newbie.

I have a custom java sampler that uses a HeaderManager to manage headers in 
multiple requests. My sampler makes a number of http requests in a single 
sample to form part of a dynamic 'transaction' and this means that different 
requests may need different headers, e.g. some could be GET, some POST, some 
require CSRF headers etc.

I'm using an HTTPSamplerBase implementation and it appears there's no 
distinction between a default header and a request header that just applies to 
the request to be sent, could be wrong, but I can't see any way to separate the 
two in the API.

My solution is to manage default and request headers is a wrapper class that 
will remove headers after the request is made, so they do not pollute 
subsequent requests.

However, from my basic reading of the code, the header manager is using an 
ArrayList to store headers and to remove a header, it has to iterate that list.

Is there any reason why it would not be more sensible to use a LinkedHashSet. 
Slightly additional overhead in storage, but much faster in removing elements.

Cheers
