After rolling out our Apache 4 -> 5 upgrade again (this time, with idle connection validation configured), we got the following report from someone who discovered an issue in load testing. The service he is testing has a dependency that is called with high fanout (up to 30 times per request), with requests made in parallel from a thread pool. During load testing, the service totally locked up; even after stopping traffic for two hours, all requests to the service were failing.
Two different types of exceptions were observed: 1. `CancellationException` on `BasicFuture.get()` when trying to lease a connection from `PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager` 2. `java.lang.IllegalStateException: Endpoint not acquired / already released` at `com.amazon.coral.apache.hc.client5.http.impl.classic.InternalExecRuntime.ensureValid(InternalExecRuntime.java:142)` I have a suspicion that this user is having some sort of resource exhaustion issue (file descriptors? ephemeral ports?) which in turn is triggering some failure mode in the client that causes the connection pool to lock up. Thoughts?
