ibrowse_pool

An alternative front-end to ibrowse, which allows running multiple instances.

Motivation

ibrowse automatically creates a connection pool for every host/port pair, but offers no way to create multiple pools for the same host/port pair (say if you want to use different pipelining settings for different parts of the API).

Usage example

$ erl -pa deps/*/ebin -pa ebin
Erlang/OTP 18 [erts-7.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:8:8] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] [dtrace]
