> I'd like to add a timer metric around socket.connect in one of my classic 
> blocking clients.
> Usually, I can implement such a thing by subclassing or introducing a 
> delagating implementation, adding a small piece of code to record metrics 
> before delegating to the original implementation -- this works incredibly 
> well for PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager 
> [here|https://github.com/palantir/dialogue/blob/cc36ec0494dc19db6d66be0cdbefbe34af2a3283/dialogue-apache-hc5-client/src/main/java/com/palantir/dialogue/hc5/InstrumentedPoolingHttpClientConnectionManager.java#L121-L141],
>  for example, which covers the full connect + handshake process across all 
> ipaddrs resolved for the provided hostname.
> Unfortunately, it's quite a bit more challenging to implement similar metrics 
> over individual `Socket.connect` calls because they occur within a single 
> large and complex method in SSLConnectionSocketFactory, which must delegate 
> to other private methods: 
> https://github.com/apache/httpcomponents-client/blob/19f3922b37369431d379ce57fa187740b22436cf/httpclient5/src/main/java/org/apache/hc/client5/http/ssl/SSLConnectionSocketFactory.java#L223-L266
> Proposal:
> I would like to introduce a new method along these lines:
> {code:java}
> void connectSocket(
>     Socket sock,
>     Timeout connectTimeout,
>     HttpContext context)
>     throws IOException
> {code}
> This way I can override the method and delegate to the builtin 
> implementation, while timing only the socket.connect component of connection 
> establishment.
> Open questions:
> 1. Would you accept such a change?
> 2. The proposed example above uses the 'connectSocket' method name which 
> would be overloaded with existing methods on ConnectionSocketFactory. Perhaps 
> a more specific name like 'connectSocketTo' would be helpful here? Either 
> way, I would need to provide javadoc describing the guarantee that only 
> 'socket.connect' is handled.
> 3. Should such a new method be added as a default interface method on 
> ConnectionSocketFactory, or a new protected method on the 
> SSLConnectionSocketFactory implementation? Updating the implementation is the 
> simpler change, but providing the method on the interface may be more 
> extensible.
> Feedback is always appreciated, thanks!
