> What do multiple connections give you?
Ability to max out bandwidth.
Many sites run rate limiters, so each connection is limited to say 10k/s
With 5 multiple connections each downloading a different portion of a
large file, I can break their rates and get 50k/s
Its how all those download accelerator thingys work.
