Question: new connection created for every request

[tejasPhaveri]

Hey, i was going through the repo to learn more about how the systems work, and how this repo is put together, and i came across something that mentioned a new connection gets created for every request. which would mean 1m connections for 1m connections right,

That got me curious, was that an architectural decision? If so, what were the main tradeoffs behind it, and what made you decide that approach over keeping connections around?

Hi @tejasPhaveri this is a human / agent based testing tool to run, its not a library. Each invocation creates a new connection to test the entire flow from scratch, without reuse. There should be no situation where pvcli is handling 1 million connections (I hope hah). https://blog.cloudflare.com/open-sourcing-our-privacy-proxy-cli/
