Hi,

I had worked with the previous pound version 2.8. Through logs I can see there 
is performance improvement opportunity:

Lets say pound is installed in machine "B".

(requester)     (Pound installed)     (response provider or server)
      A ------------------ B ----------------------- P

Machine "A" tries to send http request to machine "P", this goes through "B".

If machine A is trying to send lets say 1000 requests in a second it is handled 
in pound by default 128 threads.

These threads create a new connection with the machine "P" every time.

I tried to configure through pound.cfg with Alive, connTo,Client, Timeout 
parameters but there is no such difference on the request processing speed as 
new connections are being created.

Can you provide a patch through which a single connection between "B" and "P" 
can handle all the requests instead of creating a new http connection every 
time?

Subject: [pound] ANNOUNCE: Pound - reverse proxy and load balancer - v3.0a

This is to announce the release of Pound v3.0a. This is proof-of-
concept version - not really even alpha quality. Cumulative changes
since version 2.8:

- completely new architecture
- complete code rewrite
- new configuration file (YAML)

For the moment the system supports only HTTP/1.1 connections - we'll
complete the feature set in future releases. Planned additions:
additional header options in services, add headers in backends, HTTPS
support, HTTP/2 support.

We believe the new series 3 to be much faster than previous versions,
but your testing would be very useful. Please let us know any results.

Improvements and suggestions are more than welcome.
