Issue MULE-8603: keepAlive is not working correctly in the HTTP requester
keepAlive is not working as expected. The http:request element always sends the header Connection: keep-alive in the request, regardless of the usePersistentConnections attribute in the config. If usePersistentConnections is set to false, keepAlive should be disabled, but the header is still sent. Also, in the proxy scenario (using a listener and a requester) connections are kept alive but not reused. See example config here: https://github.com/mulesoft/performanceworks/blob/master/APPS/PROXY-MCD/100B/http_module_proxy/proxy.xml This causes "Remotely closed" errors, thrown by the service that is being proxied in a highly concurrent scenario.
