Pool easy handles? #13
Description
https://github.com/typelevel/keypool
Easy handles are meant and designed to be reused. When you have done a single transfer with the easy handle, you can immediately use it again for your next transfer.
https://everything.curl.dev/libcurl/easyhandle#reuse
After the transfer has been made, you can set new options and make another transfer, or if you are done, cleanup the session by calling curl_easy_cleanup. If you want persistent connections, you do not cleanup immediately, but instead run ahead and perform other transfers using the same easy handle.

Sounds like a mistake that we're not reusing these 😅

Keypool is not published for Native yet, but I can bootleg it real quick if someone wants to work on this. Just ping me :)

Actually I don't think this is so necessary after all, since we are using the multi API. The multi-handle will maintain the connection pool

Using a pool to reuse easy-handles may still be useful from a memory allocation perspective? But a pool adds overhead too.
