Scope of System.setProperty

What's the scope of System.setProperty in Android?

If I set a property (say System.setProperty("http.keepAlive", "false")), does it affect all apps in the system, the current app, the current task or the current thread only?

Where is this documented?

Java "system" properties do not cross process boundaries, they are held in memory and are tied to a single instance of the virtual machine. Therefore if you set a system property within application it will not be visible to other applications running on the device.
