I have a few use-cases where I'm repeatedly doing POST requests over a couple hours and I started noticing that I'd consistently see a EATHROW or some kind of system error that was pretty cryptic. But then one time, I tried to open a csv file with Base.open(file) and got a "too many open file handles" error. I then checked my lsof and sure enough, there were pages of old TCP sockets lying around from all my POST requests.
@Keno, it's not going to break anything to close these, right? I first started debugging this through Requests.jl, but realized that it's actually the Session that was not doing the closing. Should we instead do the closing in Requests.jl?
