Hi,

It looks like the android team will be investing more resources in
support / improvement of the HttpURLConnection class, based on this
dev post here:

http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/09/androids-http-clients.html
"For Gingerbread and better, HttpURLConnection is the best choice"
"New applications should use HttpURLConnection; it is where we will be
spending our energy going forward."

It looks like connection pooling is supported by HttpURLConnection,
but seems to have a timeout of 5 seconds? (I can't find any
documentation on this). Is there any way to increase the duration that
connections are kept alive?

I'm creating connections to "https://example.com/echo?param=abc";. If
the user initiates connections in intervals < 5 seconds, I can see the
https setup is avoided, hinting me that the connection is being
reused.

But if the connections are spaced out > 5 seconds, I see the entire
https setup done again, making me think the connections are not being
reused.

Is there a way for us to increase this timeout?

Thank you
