I don't think the KeepAlive/persistant connections will have anything to 
do with it, I believe that this allows a client to make muptiple 
requests using the same connection (if I read the rfc correctly). 
Something to do with it being more efficient.  The Timeout would be what 
I played with first, but I am not too sure if this is what you are after.


Will.
