Is this happening all the time? (several times on the same web page)?
Or does it happen only when a 'new' task is initiated?
The reason I ask is that "keepalive" (which only exists in v1.70 of
Arachne), might fix it if it happens several times on the same web page.
(without keepalive)
Open connection, get .HTM file, close connection.
Open connection, get first image, close connection.
Open connection, get second image, close connection.
Open connection, get third image, close connection.
(with keepalive)
Open connection, get .HTM file, get first image, get second image, get
third image, close connection.
However.....
If it happens with each new task.... even keepalive won't help that. :(
