Hi Andrus,

Do you receive my last mail containing the files ?

You're right, but beware of the problem, a single connection (like described) might use multiple graphical files (JPG, GIF...), and the problem occurs when the client receive the HTML page from the WebServer and ask him to send back the other needed files.

The time used by the server to send back one files to a single IE client is suffisant to make the server crash if the client request more than 5 or 6 graphical files.

Even simple HTML page show a max queue about 4 or 5 element, the intranet I send you to show the example I wrote needed this, and sometime if the server is a little busy the response time increase and the queue increase too. The 5 simultaneous element is rapidly reached. And in this case the problem occurs.

Just test the example I send, the number to the right side give the maximum simultenaous session. For me, I single connection could generate at less one session but generally generate 4 6 even 9 sessions if the HTML page needed a lot of file.

Hope you'll understand my explanation, and sorry for my bad english writting.

Regards,
Roman
