HTTP Pipelining

--> HTTP pipelining is a method in which multiple HTTP requests are sent using a single TCP connection without waiting for the HTTP responses.

--> The web server still needs to send its responses in the same order that the requests were received — so the entire connection remains first-in-first-out.

--> HTTP pipelining improves the loading times of HTML pages, especially over high latency connections such as satellite Internet connections.

--> HTTP pipelining requires both the client and the server to support it.

--> HTTP Pipelining was introduced in HTTP/1.1 and was not present in HTTP/1.0.

--> Most of the browsers such as Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox disables HTTP Pipelining to avoid issues with the web server.
