Hi all,
On http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client/tutorial/html/ch02.html
the section titled "Connection keep alive strategy" talks about when
to implement a custom keep-alive strategy.
But I thought that if a connection gets dropped by the server due to
inactivity, the next request made using that stale connection will
trigger an IOException, which HttpClient will automatically handle by
re-trying with a new connection.
So is the issue that retrying winds up being less efficient, versus
auto-closing connections? Or is my understanding of what HttpClient 4
will do with a stale connection too optimistic?
Thanks,
-- Ken
