Unable to configure Ping interval from client and client continue to ping when closed.

According to the following Implementation Considerations in the specification

Implementations SHOULD periodically issue pings to detect connection health
The frequency of pings SHOULD be configurable
Timeouts SHOULD be appropriate for the network environment
Excessive pinging SHOULD be avoided to reduce network overhead

2 issues I can see in the latest Java SDK using SSE:

I am not able to configure the frequency of the pings or disable it to reduce network overhead.
The client will continue to ping the server even after I run client.close().

I can not identify where this would happen on the client side. We did have an implementation of a keep-alive mechanism using pings, but that is only handled on the server side (#430) and it was implemented after you raised this issue.

If you are still experiencing this issue, can you please provide a reproducer or pointers where this happens?

Closing due to inactivity.
