the whole idea of opening multiple tcp sessions "to get better performance" is just horrible in any case. http/1.1 can do serial multiplexing when talking to a particular server, and browsers have now got no excuse at all for opening more than one connection unless it's to more than one server.
I'm aware of the existance of a protocol for HTTP to persistent connections where one object/document can be downloaded, and after that is done, another can be requested and downloaded, and again as needed. But I know not of any protocol for multiplexing so that I can have concurrency of the transfers of multiple images at the same time. Is there an RFC for this or is it some other kind of document? -- Phil Howard | a4b7c9d8 () dumb4ads edu w5x2y1z8 () dumb7ads net ads6suck () anywhere org phil | stop9738 () anyplace org w2x1y8z3 () anyplace org no12ads2 () no6place net at | suck1it1 () anyplace net end5ads8 () dumb0ads org blow6me7 () anywhere edu milepost | stop1939 () no0place edu no7spam8 () nowhere9 net crash622 () lame2ads edu dot | no2spam0 () nowhere3 com ads9suck () spam1mer org eat51me4 () dumbads4 edu com | eat38me6 () nowhere7 com end8ads2 () dumb8ads edu end2ads7 () spam1mer net
