My understanding is that Netscape uses - forgive the terminology -
persistent HTTP connections. That is if Netscape opens up a connection to a
site and needs to suck down 10 URLs then this may be done over a single TCP
connection, much in the same way that cached SMTP sessions work with
sendmail (and other MTAs). Would this explain the problem?
