CURLOPT_MAXAGE_CONN(3) libcurl CURLOPT_MAXAGE_CONN(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_MAXAGE_CONN - max idle time allowed for reusing a connection
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAXAGE_CONN, long age);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long as parameter containing age - the maximum time in seconds
allowed for an existing connection to have been idle to be considered
for reuse for this request.
The "connection cache" holds previously used connections. When a new
request is to be done, libcurl considers any connection that matches
for reuse. The CURLOPT_MAXAGE_CONN(3) limit prevents libcurl from try-
ing too old connections for reuse, since old connections have a higher
risk of not working and thus trying them is a performance loss and
sometimes service loss due to the difficulties to figure out the situa-
tion. If a connection is found in the cache that is older than this set
age, it is closed instead.
DEFAULT
Default maximum age is set to 118 seconds.

curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
