The documentation lists the following as a limitation: "Persistent connections are not supported. The Connection header will always be set to close." We should consider adding support for persistent connections.

It's worth considering, but there is a memory/complexity hit to doing so. I don't think it should be the default. I'm not convinced that there are substantial number of users using HTTP::Tiny for repeat connections to a single site, so I don't want to add a feature just because we don't offer it until we know people actually need it. -- David
