(Apache 2.2.10, PHP 5.2.14) The browser and / or OS may be obeying the settings about the number of simultaneous connections per host. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/183110 / http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt 8.1.4 Practical Considerations ... " Clients that use persistent connections SHOULD limit the number of simultaneous connections that they maintain to a given server. A single-user client SHOULD NOT maintain more than 2 connections with any server or proxy. A proxy SHOULD use up to 2*N connections to another server or proxy, where N is the number of simultaneously active users. These guidelines are intended to improve HTTP response times and avoid congestion."
