Does the HTTP server in CouchDB [MochiWeb?] support HTTP pipelining? I'd like to enable it in TouchDB's replicator as it should make 'pull' replication a lot faster, but I first want to make sure it's not something unsupported or flaky in CouchDB.
In the long run it would be good to come up with an extension to the API to allow the replicator to fetch remote revisions in bulk. Currently the large number of small HTTP GETs (one per revision) greatly lower the performance of pulls. —Jens
