title: how to verify connection is reused with python requests.session?
body: <p>I'd like to use requests 's session to reuse connections in django.  </p>

  <p>says I only need to declare it in global and access it.<br>
  However I doubt it is working as expected because it didn't get any faster in my test.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to see if connection is actually reused as described here?</p>

  <p>Django spawns separate thread for each requests and I think it defeats the mechanism to share the connection. (because session won't be shared across multiple threads) .. this is my hypothesis..</p>
