For Https request seeing 2 connections opened by Jetty to serve the request

[ravishjasuja]

Jetty version(s)
10.0.20

Jetty Environment
Jetty 10

Java version/vendor
Java 11

OS type/version
SLES 15 SP4

Description
When request sent to https port. We are seeing 2 connections opened.
First Connection: For the SSL/TLS handshake.
Second Connection: For the actual HTTP request after the handshake is completed.
Is there a way to optimize it? Is there a way that Jetty can use single connection to serve the https request.
Note: We have separate port which serves http client request and we see only 1 connection opened for that but seeing 2 connection opened for https.

How to reproduce?
We need to fire https request and we can see that 2 connections are opened.

By the way, Jetty does not do what you describe.

Try with Jetty 12, and if you still see the issue, please report exactly what you mean by "2 connections opened" because I can guarantee you it is not what happens.
