[Mono-aspnet-list] HttpWebRequest Allocates Multiple Threads per Request

[Sean Reque]

I noticed today in a debugger session that  performing a simple POST 
request with HttpWebRequest  allocates three new threads. Examining the 
source code reveals that the synchronous methods GetRequestStream() and 
GetResponseStream() use the asynchronous versions of themselves underneath 
the hood. 
Allocating three threads per request is unacceptable for my application. 
Is there any way to work around this so that making synchronous requests 
does not allocate new threads?


Thanks,
