90628 - PSM keeping connections open and not reusing for other requests

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 90625

(Core Graveyard :: Security: UI, defect)

Description

[Julz]

I'm not entirely sure is this is how things are supposed to be, but I've been
having problems with Mozilla 0.9.2 2001062815 and 2001-07-11-07 trunk.
What happens is when I'm in a secure site, happens to be the similiar to the one
above, PSM takes over the connections to the site.  I expect this, but then it
never releases them for use by other requests to the same secure site.  The end
result is the eventually Win98 runs out of connections because every graphic and
HTML file requested from the site creates a new connection which never gets reused.
Is this how it's supposed to be?  I hope not.  Not sure if it's the same in
Linux or any other OS.

PS: The username and password required to sign on to this sample site at
burst.net is "sample". And I'm using the command "netstat -a -n -p TCP" to
monitor the connections being used.
