[BUG] Unable to make simultaneous asynchronous requests

[zentixua]

Describe the bug
Making multiple simultaneous requests to a single host results in a curl error if a TCP connection to the requested host was established earlier (a request was made previously).

To Reproduce

1. Install httpx using pip install httpx
2. Install curl-cffi using pip install curl-cffi
3. Run this code:

import asyncio
import sys

from curl_cffi.requests import AsyncSession
from httpx import AsyncClient

BASE_URL = 'https://images.pexels.com'
PATHS = ['/photos/842711/pexels-photo-842711.jpeg'] * 2


async def test_httpx():
    print('----- httpx -----')
    async with AsyncClient() as session:
        await session.get(BASE_URL)
        tasks = [session.get(BASE_URL + path) for path in PATHS]
        print(await asyncio.gather(*tasks))


async def test_curl_cffi():
    print('----- curl-cffi -----')
    async with AsyncSession() as session:
        await session.get(BASE_URL)
        tasks = [session.get(BASE_URL + path) for path in PATHS]
        print(await asyncio.gather(*tasks))


if __name__ == '__main__':
    if sys.platform == 'win32':
        asyncio.set_event_loop_policy(asyncio.WindowsSelectorEventLoopPolicy())
    asyncio.run(test_httpx())
    asyncio.run(test_curl_cffi())

Expected behavior
The requests will be successfully completed and the bytes of the requested images will be received with an HTTP status of 200, as occurs when using httpx.

Versions

Additional context

• Which session are you using? Async.
• If using async session, which loop implementation are you using? Asyncio.

A temporary fix is to force http/1.1, I'm still investigating a further solution.

- async with AsyncSession() as session:
+ async with AsyncSession(http_version=CurlHttpVersion.V1_1) as session:

Hello! Are there any new details on the issue?

Hello again, any updates?

same error. when streaming curl_cffi.requests.errors.RequestsError: Failed to perform, curl: (18) . See https://curl.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html first for more details.

Looks like AsyncSession(curl_options={CurlOpt.FRESH_CONNECT: True}) (proposed in #319) is beter workaround and can be achieved without patch, test works like expected if this option provided.
