If you are making requeries to the same server(s) each time, then you might
consider using HTTP keep-alives, so that the connections are not dropped
after each request and thus don't need to be reconnected each time.

Exactly what its name suggests it is - a timeout for Connect().  If
Connect() does not establish a connection before the timeout elapses, then
the socket is closed and an exception is thrown.

No.
