- IE limits the number of simultaneous persistent connections per server to only 2!! that means your browser can download only 2 items at a time, causing an unneccesary lag. Here is the page on the microsoft website explaining it: http://support.microsoft.com/default...;en-us;q183110
they claim its a requirement by the http1.1 standards but why would you give a shit?
what you have to is just add a registy entry and it works like a charm. if you didnt already get the info from link above, here is step by step instructions:
- Start Menu -> Run -> Type "regedit" and hit ok
- browse to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Internet Settings" on the left menu
- Click on Internet Settings on the left menu
- Edit -> New -> DWORD value
- Rename it to: MaxConnectionsPerServer
- Right click on that entry on the right menu, and select Modify.
- Enter a value like between 5 and 10 in there. Hit ok.
- Restart your machine.
- Feel the difference!

When I try to modify MaxConnectionsPerServer, it defaults to hexadecimal but also has a choice of decimal. WTF is a hexadecimal & should I choose decimal with a value of 10?
