Ah right. Thanks for that Klaus. I discussed something similar with my
collegues quite recently, although it was more related to the maximum
allowed HTTP threads to a domain as well. Since subdomains are classed as
unique to HTTP, it's possible to request two sets of data from upto 3 (if I
remember correctly) different domains/subdomains. This can of course be
overridden, but the bulk of users simply don't do that, and no mainstream
browser breaks the HTTP protocol by default.

Effectively 6 seperate requests can be made. Google Maps makes use of this
to effectively load balance their servers by requesting images from
different subdomains. It's a good idea and it's something I'm looking into
professionally as part of a solution for asynchronous data transfer.
