https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32945

           Summary: Only 4 simultaneous connections with xmlhttprequest
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://www.virtualcreations.de
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Page Loading
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

It seems that Webkit only allows 4 connections at once.

Can you add a javascript command to set the maximum allowed connections?
Is there any way to change it?
Why you added this limitation?

Here is a webpage that shows this problem. Please disable cache, open activity
window and visit this webpage:

http://virtualcreations.de/web_design   (flash player 10 required)

Music streaming will start. Now quickly press on for example "company", while
the mp3 is still loading (watch the activity window). The content will be only
loaded _AFTER_ the mp3-download was finished. The content loads 4 ajax areas by
using xmlhttprequests. The next page only starts if all ajax areas are loaded.
Bt the loading will never finish until the whole mp3 was loaded.

The webpage loads normal on IE, Firefox etc.

I worked around this a bit by starting the xmlhttprequests with 150*nr ms
timeouts. But it doesnt work every time.

Can you give me a hint to work around it in a decent way?
Moving the mp3s to another CNAME-domain would be a way, but the problem is that
flash player's Security is buggy and does not allow to crossdomain mp3s...


Thanks for infos,

Jurek
