OK, thanks.

In the current implementation, the new HTTP core can be configured to
spawn from 12 to up to 256 (!) simultaneous connections... The texture
fetcher code however never queues more than 40 requests at once, thus
limiting the potential damages, but you might want to have a look at
that and provide safer bounds before the new HTTP core gets used for
more services in the viewer...
My backports allows from 8 to 32 simultaneous connections, with 12 as
the default (i.e. same default as in viewer-http).

Henri.
