No, there is no reason however I am sending http web request to multiple
(hardware embeded) web servers with limited features. Some servers do not
close the connection after first web-request and web response complets (with
webresponse.close() command) and I have to keep retrying until (default time
out 90 seconds for connection) expires for second web request to be started.
The same back to back web requests works fine on some http servers (hardware
embeded). So I am trying common sloution acceptable for both behaviours.
The time out of 90 seconds is kind of not accepatble in my environment since
my code is making several request to several http servers 24x7. Fortunetly
the code works fine except this nagging issue.

I am closing the web response with webresponse.close() for both web
requests however seeing different behaviours in some remote http severs
(hardware embeded).

Any suggestions? TIA!
