When upgrading from HttpClient 4.2 to the new APIs (no deprecated use) in 4.3 I'm observing a 25-30ms increase in average response latency. Anyone else observe this or have configuration suggestions while upgrading? I see that RequestConfig.isStaleConnectionCheckEnabled is enabled by default, but this appears to be for good reason.
Were default client parameters reevaluated between 4.2 and 4.3 or have they remained the same? In 4.3 HttpClientBuilder makes it quite clear what the default values are. In 4.2 HttpParams may have absent/unset values, which requires looking elsewhere to determine the client behavior. Thanks, Tad
