[jetty-users] HttpClient - statistics on # of established connections?

["Chris Lee" <chrisl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Using jetty (7.0) in a proxy server implementation handling incoming HTTPS requests (SslSelectChannelConnector) and dispatching them to a small number of back-end servers (HttpClient CONNECTOR_SELECT_CHANNEL).  Various metrics are collected and exposed via JMX – one set of metrics is front end established connections and back end established connections.

 

Front end established connection metrics are gathered in the connectionClosed / connectionOpened methods of SslSelectChannelConnector.

 

Have been unable to find a clear location to track the equivalent metric for HttpClient – any thoughts on using existing hooks in the API, or exposing this information via the API?
