------------------------------

             Summary: Make HttpHook inner connection pool configurable
                 Key: AIRFLOW-2010
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-2010
             Project: Apache Airflow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: hooks
    Affects Versions: 1.8.0
            Reporter: Galak


HttpHook is using request module to perform http/https calls. but it is hidden inside implementation. Therefore, it is not possible to choose any value for _pool_connections_ or  _pool_maxsize_ parameters, defaulting to 10. (see [request module documentation|http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/api/#lower-lower-level-classes])

_{{requests.adapters.HTTPAdapter}}_ parameters could probably be passed through Connection extra parameters ?

As a consequence, calling a REST API concurrently (using [ThreadPoolExecutor|https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html#threadpoolexecutor]) is limited to 10 workers maximim. Each additional worker is stopped with the following warning:
{quote}{{{connectionpool.py} WARNING - Connection pool is full, discarding connection: my.api.example.org}}{quote}
