I have performed some limited tests while developing our Web Robustifier. I found that Netscape Navigator 4.61/Linux doesn't support pipelining as per RFC2616. It does however pipeline if you browse a Netscape Enterprise server. I assume it is using the explicit Keep-Alive (RFC2616:19.6.2) method. Internet Explorer v4.72.3110 does support RFC2616 pipelining though, I have tested browsing Apache/1.3.9/Linux. Trying to browse the same Netscape Enterprise server (with IE) that supported 'Keep-Alive' pipelining when browsed with the Netscape Navigator did not result in a pipelined connection though. These are just my limited findings, so far. It would be nice if anyone else had more extensive tests to share. Cheers, /Patrik.
