The max number of connections per destination.
RFC 2616 suggests that 2 connections should be opened per each destination, but browsers commonly open 6 or more.
If this <code class="literal">HttpClient</code> is used for load testing, it is common to have only one destination (the server to load test), and it is recommended to set this value to a high value (at least as much as the threads present in the executor).</dd><dt><span class="term">idleTimeout</span></dt><dd>Default Value: 30000
