' The response header contains this:

' Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2025 12:18:56 GMT
' Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
' Transfer-Encoding: chunked
' Connection: keep-alive
' Content-Encoding: gzip

' The "Connection: keep-alive" header ensures the server keeps the connection open for subsequent requests.
' If the server responds with a "Connection: close" header, it indicates the connection will be closed after the response. 
' Consequently, Chilkat will also close the connection, requiring a new one to be established for any subsequent requests to the same server.

' If your application uses the same HTTP object instance to send requests to a different server, a new connection will be established with that server.
' Existing connections remain open, with Chilkat maintaining up to 10 open connections. 
' If all 10 connections are in use, Chilkat will close the least recently used connection to connect to a new server.

' Your application can explicitly close all open connections like this:
success = http.CloseAllConnections()
