[TriLUG] Why IExplorer is (sometimes) so fast?

[Sinner from the Prairy]

All,

I guess that you have seen IExplorer be incredibly fast... at least sometimes. 

This is no coincidence. I's just a break of TCP's RFC. See it here:

I woder why I'm not surprised...

Now, how about making Apache do something similar with Mozilla? Or stablish a 
bogus-TCP (IExplorer) identifier, so IExplorer gets a 404 20% of the time, 
like some kind of RFC's police ... Then, IExplorer users will get a degraded 
performance. If they play the game, we all can...


Salut,
Sinner
