That's the theory. It requires active (not just accepting) pipelining 
support in servers, proxy and clients. It also depends on a number of 
object sent through the pipeline. You still have to fetch (from 
browser/proxy) most of the external objects, since only the server knows 
what objects are in the page before it is parsed by the client 
(browser/proxy).

You can test the examples that I have prepared and see if there are any 
results. In the real world scenario I think embedding would work better 
since the proxy would prefetch and assemble most of the page before it 
is returned to the server.

In the proxy pipelining scenario you would have to download the page to 
the browser, browser would parse it and then combine and send the 
requests to the proxy and wait for external objects. In embedding 
scenario browser would send request to the proxy, proxy would fetch the 
page, parse it and fetch external objects and embed them in page and 
return the result to the browser.
