Relevant 5.x code
Edit: is it really required to go to the classloader to determine a default
user agent? Is a standard usecase that people would run multiple apache client
versions in a jvm? Multiple java versions? Is this the ideal design?

> We have an application that has a fairly high outbound http call rate using
> Apache Http Client. We have been profiling it recently using the async
> profiler and I noticed that almost 10% of our cpu time is spent in
> VersionInfo.getUserAgent.
> We use HttpClientBuilder for each call (this seems the correct way to be able
> to use different connection pools and settings).
> I am guessing because we do not explicitly set the user agent that the client
> will go determine the client version and java version and use this... the
> automatically generated user agent in our case looks like:
> {code:java}
> User-Agent: Apache-HttpClient/4.5.12 (Java/17.0.7){code}
> I have attached the profiler flame graph. I would imagine something like this
> could be checked once and used for any further calls. I have not tested it
> yet but I am hoping a workaround would be to make sure to set a user agent
> and then none of this classloader stuff would need to happen for each call.
