I am trying to complete a list of offical documentation references about the default values* of the maximum concurrent HTTP/1.1 connections per server for current (2011) major browsers.
Here's what I've got so far:
- Firefox 4.x: 6 (ref missing)
- Firefox 3.6.x: 6
- Internet Explorer 9.x: 6
- Internet Explorer 8.x: dialup: 2, broadband: 6
- Internet Explorer 7.x: dialup: 2, broadband: 2
- Chrome 11.x: 6
- Chrome 10.x: 6
- Opera 11.x: 8
- Safari 5.x: 6 (ref missing)
I think most (if not all) of the default values I listed should be correct, but I'd prefer to have official documentation references which prove that.
Is anybody aware of such offical documentation references?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
* How to tweak this values by registry/console, or how to optimize by CDNs/CNAMEs is not the target of this question.
