Bug 30661 – Chromium HTTP Connection Count erroneously throttled to 4.

• Component: WebCore Misc.
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Mike Belshe]

When initializeMaximumHTTPConnectionCountPerHost() was introduced (ResourceRequestBase.cpp), it artificially throttled non-MAC platforms at 4 connections.

Chromium needs to use 6.

Simple patch to do the same thing that the mac platform does - have this function be controlled outside of webkit.

A corresponding change will be made in the chromium api to provide this function.

This method should probably be implemented in chromium/ResourceRequest.h as
either defined to return 6 or defined in terms of a ChromiumBridge function
call of exactly the same signature.

 9         No new tests. (OOPS!)
will have to be removed before commit.  Our documentation isn't very good on that subject, but the OOPS will cause the commit to fail.

Better would be to replace that with a short comment explaining why this is untestable (it actually probably isn't untestable, but could be kinda tricky).
