Sorry for questioning Python :-) - it turned out that this is a problem with Mozilla. For some reason it holds up with opening second connection to given host until the previous one is completed. Interestingly enough, IE works better with Python multi threaded server in that regard.
Thx, A.
Try switching keepalives off, or falling back to HTTP 1.0 - ironically it may be the attempt to use the same connection for both pieces of content that holds things up.
