We like to use Chrome as it seems the fastest. However, chrome have this annoying issue where the maximum number of connection per host is 6 and it can't be changed:
You can't get around a browser's hard limits on the number of tabs. We did, however, work around this via 0.9.4 and later by implementing a single-tab interface. It won't allow you to open 6+ tabs, but it will allow you to open 6+ connections within a single tab.

This means that we can't open more than 6 tabs to the target server.
Are there any workarounds or plans in development to solve this?
