but we have HTTP request timeouts in there, don't we? If HTTP timeouts have performance impact we may have a heartbeat list with alive HTTP servers that are defined as sms-service '[get|post]-url'. The heartbeat thread may test the HTTP servers using a HEAD request to their URI / and keep the list updated with 'alive' or 'dead' for that entry. Any incoming sms-service request may test the heartbeat list before sending the acutual HTTP request. This way we may provide a facility not to query a dead HTTP server. Just a thought.
