For the client config Keep-Alive is active by default and the connection factory is cached in org.apache.cxf.transport.https.HttpsURLConnectionFactory so this should be fine. Which kind of server are you using? I would enable logging on the client side to debug http traffic (or use tools like Wireshark) to see what's going on with the connections. Cheers Dennis
