Add connection pool? #122

Open daewok opened 2 years ago

Would there be interest in adding connection pool support to Drakma?

I had plans to create an external connection pool that wrapped http-request and passed it a :stream. But I realized this is ~impossible to get right when using a proxy, as Drakma will only send the full URI if :stream is nil. Plus there are some other fiddly bits that are hard to get right externally, like dealing with redirects.

I figured I'd see if there was interest in adding a connection pool directly to Drakma instead of continuing to bang my head against the wall to get an external pool to handle all the corner cases correctly.
