"Connection pool is full, discarding connection" warning about threat_intel HOT 4 CLOSED

As per requests documentation in the module requests.packages.urllib3.connectionpool:

If the pool is already full, the connection is closed and discarded because we exceeded maxsize. If connections are discarded frequently, then maxsize should be increased.

I don't think this is a big problem, but we may need to increase the pool size, so that the connections are not discarded that often.

I am receiving the folowing error:

WARNING:urllib3.connectionpool:Connection pool is full, discarding connection: www.virustotal.com

Many times when trying to get a report for ~2000 domains. Has this connection pool issue been resolved?

I get it if I send all 2000 at once or if I iterate over the domains making an API call per domain.

#!/usr/bin/python
import os
import time
from threat_intel.virustotal import VirusTotalApi


vt = VirusTotalApi(os.environ["VIRUS_TOTAL"], resources_per_req=1)
fo = open("questionable_domains.txt", "r")
domains = fo.readlines()

# print(vt.get_domain_reports(domains))

for domain in domains:
    print(vt.get_domain_reports(domain))

The reason for this issue was that the customized SSL Adapter mounted to each session was using a max HTTPConnectionPool size of 10. Specifically, this meant that each connection pool corresponding to a specific host could only issue 10 requests asynchronously per batch before filling up and discarding the connection. The fix was as simple as specifying for the adapter to take in a maximum pool size corresponding to the max of the grequest batch size and 10 (default max pool size used by the HTTP adapter).

Fixed with #74.
