They blew the basic setup, but after that its priceless: Tom Hanks as 007.
It should take less than an hour if we are lucky.
There's something incongruous about basing the estimate of when a task should be completed on an estimate that assumes favorable breaks.

Is Firefox compliant with RFC 2616; 8.1.4 ?
Clients that use persistent connections SHOULD limit the number of simultaneous connections that they maintain to a given server. A single-user client SHOULD NOT maintain more than 2 connections with any server or proxy. A proxy SHOULD use up to 2*N connections to another server or proxy, where N is the number of simultaneously active users. These guidelines are intended to improve HTTP response times and avoid congestion.
Microsoft says that they comply by default, but give a registry setting to modify the behavior. This is consistent with the data that I saw in a recent test.
When I run a similar test using Firefox, it appears that there are more than two connections running concurrently (that is, I've got three different ports receiving "Continuation or non-HTTP traffic", where the range of the packets is overlapping.
Answer: Firefox knows that I'm talking to a proxy, and so is throttled by network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy instead of network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server (see about:config). Since I'm only just discovering this setting today, it seems likely that the current value (4) is the default setting... strangely non-compliant.
