Stephen,

No it won't. The releaseConnection method among obvious things such as
returning the connection back to the connection manager also makes sure
that the connection is actually reusable if it is kept alive (open).
That pretty much implies making sure that the response body is fully
consumed. If your application does not consume the response body in its
entirety, the releaseConnection method will do it for it.

Hope this answers your question.

Oleg
