Agree. Not sure what the fix should be, since the default gio resolver uses a threaded pool with an unlimited (-1) number of threads. I was also thinking, could it be that we end up calling soup_add_completion too much?

>From my initial testing, it looks like WebKit tries to prefetch too many times the same resources over and over again. I've been taking a look at other ports and some of them like Windows use a prefetch queue that limits the maximim simultaneous requests to 8. I can try to do something similar and see what happens.
