> 1.)  When using protocol-httpclient to crawl a single website (the same host) I would always get a bunch of timeout errors during fetching and the pages with errors would not be fetched. E.g.:
> 2013-07-09 17:57:13,717 WARN  fetcher.FetcherJob - fetch of http://www.... failed with: org.apache.commons.httpclient.ConnectionPoolTimeoutException: Timeout waiting for connection
> 2013-07-09 17:57:13,718 INFO  fetcher.FetcherJob - fetching http://www.... (queue crawl delay=0ms)
> 2013-07-09 17:57:13,715 ERROR httpclient.Http - Failed with the following error: 
> org.apache.commons.httpclient.ConnectionPoolTimeoutException: Timeout waiting for connection
> 	at org.apache.commons.httpclient.MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager.doGetConnection(MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager.java:497)
> 	at org.apache.commons.httpclient.MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager.getConnectionWithTimeout(MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager.java:416)
> 	at org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector.executeMethod(HttpMethodDirector.java:153)
> 	at org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient.executeMethod(HttpClient.java:397)
> 	at org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient.executeMethod(HttpClient.java:323)
> 	at org.apache.nutch.protocol.httpclient.HttpResponse.<init>(HttpResponse.java:95)
> 	at org.apache.nutch.protocol.httpclient.Http.getResponse(Http.java:174)
> 	at org.apache.nutch.protocol.http.api.HttpBase.getProtocolOutput(HttpBase.java:133)
> 	at org.apache.nutch.fetcher.FetcherReducer$FetcherThread.run(FetcherReducer.java:518)
> This is because by default the connection pool manager only allows 2 connections per host so if more than 2 threads are used the others will tend to time out waiting to get a connection.   The code previously set max connections correctly but not connection per host.
> 2.) I also added at the same time simple modifications to both protocol-http and protocol-httpclient to allow specifying a cookie string in the conf file to include in request headers.  
> I use this to crawl site content requiring authentication - it is better for me to specify the cookie string for the authentication than go through the whole authentication process and specifying login info.
> The nutch-site.xml property is the following:
> <property>
>         <name>http.cookie_string</name>
>         <value>XX_AL=authorization_value_goes_here</value>
> 		<description>String to use as the cookie value for HTTP requests</description>
> </property>
> Although I use it for authentication it can be used to specify any single cookie string for the crawl (httpclient does support different cookies for different hosts but I did not get into that).
