Setting stream=True with requests can lead to issues with not closing the connection so the urllib3 connection pool is not freed up, so only set stream=True if making a request with application/octet-stream content-type. See the body-content-workflow and keep-alive sections in the requests docs here for more information: http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/user/advanced/ Note that commit dbb242b changed the response body_iter code to potentially return a six.StringIO object rather than the old ResponseBodyIterator class and since the images client code is not converting the body_iter into a dict using json.loads, we have to do that directly in the _request method where the body_iter is constructed.

Python bindings to the OpenStack Images API
This is a client library for Glance built on the OpenStack Images
API. It provides a Python API (the glanceclient module) and
a command-line tool (glance). This library fully supports
the v1 Images API, while support for the v2 API is in progress.
Development takes place via the usual OpenStack processes as outlined in the OpenStack wiki. The master repository is on GitHub.
See release notes and more at http://docs.openstack.org/developer/python-glanceclient/.
