[Tsung] Persistent connections?

[Aaron Pfeifer]

Hi,

One of the things I've noticed doing HTTP load tests with Tsung is that the
connection is kept open when performing thinktimes within a session.  I had
been using the default HTTP 1.1 connections.  This seems to be a problem
because if I have long thinktimes (e.g. 30 seconds), the web server
eventually empties its available connection pool.

Recently, what I've been doing is enforcing HTTP 1.0 on requests so that the
connection isn't kept open.  I'm wondering (1) is this the right way to do
this and (2) is there another, more appropriate, way to do this?

I've tried setting the "persistent" option on the session, but I'm not
really sure what that does and it didn't seem to change anything.

Regards,
Aaron
