New Post: How do you handle persistent connections

Hi Shadimari,

Our Windows Desktop client is written on top of WinHTTP and we rely on WinHTTP connection pooling logic. WinHTTP will automatically try to reuse a connection from a previous request if possible; otherwise it will create a new TCP connection. However, connections aren't pooled across http_client instances.
On other platforms (like Linux/Mac), we do not pool connections, this is a known issue.

Thanks
