    Description

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Download Caddy: https://caddyserver.com/
        (I tested with v2.4.5.)
      2. Run an HTTP server for testing:
        caddy.exe file-server
      3. Build and run the attached HTTP client project: 20210927-1018-QNetworkAccessManagerTest.zip.
      4. After around 4,000 consecutive GET requests (about 15 minutes), the application crashes with a read access violation.

      This bug could possibly be a duplicate of QTBUG-38309, however:

      • The other bug specifically says it does not happen on Windows whereas this one does.
      • The other bug points suspicion at OpenSSL whereas this bug uses HTTP.

      Having said that, I tried the same work-around mentioned in QTBUG-38309, changing:

      reply->deleteLater();

      to

      QTimer::singleShot(1000, reply, &QObject::deleteLater);

       and so far (over 13,000 requests / 44 minutes) it has not crashed.
