Apache SOAP explicitly closes sockets after each request as it does not support HTTP keep-alives.
The frequent handshaking is, I believe, caused by JSSE or JDK 1.4 marking cached sessions as stale very quickly. I have run tests in which a cached SSL session is re-used anywhere from 0 to 6 times out of 10. I have not figured out a way to control this. On 4 Feb 2003 at 11:42, Luke Galea wrote: > > Hello!!
