It seems that the overall preference is to make use of the already existing 
`jdk.httpclient.keepalive.timeout` property. I'll soon push a set of changes 
which reflects this. Another change I will include will be to do with reducing 
the default 1200ms value for the `jdk.httpclient.keepalive.timeout` as 
discussed above.
