hi,
i'm currently programing an ajax application. my client is firefox 3,
on the sever runs a java servlet with latest tomcat as application
server.
ok i have to make a large number of concurrent requests, at about 64.
i read that firefox has a build in limitation to 7, the following are
queued.
my problem is:
when i fire all 64 requests to the servlet, it gets started 7 times,
but thats it. where are the other 57 ?
can anyone explain that to me?

Simple: They are queued up inside Firefox until one of the other 7 sends
back its reply, then the first one in line gets sent and so on.
This is actually a general part of the HTTP/1.1 standard
(http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt) in the last paragraph of
section 8.1.4, except that standard says the limit should be only 2
requests pr. server pr. browser (for all tabs and windows added
together).
As a writer of ajax or other web applications, you can find many other
important rules in that standard, such as rules about what things are
not allowed to happen as a result of a GET request (but are allowed to
happen from a POST request).
