Comment #7 on issue 10810 by [email protected]: Reopening tabs from previous browser session can't be done in one batch - often causes crashes in home gateways http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=10810
I can try to compile such data - considering some options, so guidance would be appreciated. First, a list of routers affected by a (lowish) max in Global connections. http://www.tocomet.com/post/26400/ (Circa 2006) I'm attempting to find more up to date data, or a breakdown of routers sold, but subjectively : Westtell modems are incredibly common DSL modems out here in CA. The Netgear DG and WG series were the backbone of the Netgear series when this list was compiled and sold well (I've got one of most of them sitting around somewhere.) The Linksys devices - similiar story. The DLink DI series was the cheapest router around for a while, and also sold a ton. (Cover those brands plus Belkin and you've covered the wireless router supply of most big box electronics retailers.) Not everyone's using a brand new 802.11n, and I'd posit that some of those routers still have the same problem. (Will source this when I find hard evidence.) ==== 200 connections seems to be a problem threshold. It isn't hard to reach this. I just pulled up finance.yahoo.com. I counted 14 simultaneous requests (well above the HTTP connection limit, as the requests were being made of different servers), and that's just assuming that the requests all are serviced rapidly. In the situation that I'm talking about, part of the problem is that many home/mobile connections would be saturated - so those 14 would take much longer (and there would probably be more requests triggered as they started to come back.) [In the example given, there were 39 total connections formed, most in groups of 14, 5, 4 or 6] Given this example, imagine a few ajaxy sites, a google doc perhaps, maybe some flash content, and you can easily see passing 200 connections. Even 50 tabs (not unheard of) on a simple HTTP 1.0 server without any content on other domains would hit this limit. ==== As far as collecting data from others : Would you consider a python script opening as many tabs in a similar way (with comparison tcpdumps to prove that the behavior is similiar) as a reasonably proxy for a test? (Easier to distribute an executable to others rather than ensuring that they have Chrome installed and forcing in a tabset.) -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
