There seems to be an interaction between pound-1.9's ssl and current 
Firefox.

I only have seen this in https, using pound-1.9, and using the current 
firefox browser.  It shows up as excruciating slowness when making 
multiple requests, i.e., a web page with images, where the secondary 
requests come in very slowly.  ZMI takes many seconds to load.

My work-around (I'm using Gentoo unstable, so openssl, etc., are 
current) is to go back to pound-1.8.3, where this does not happen.  1.9 
works fine with konqueror, and I don't think this was happening with 
pound-1.9 and Firefox 1.0.4.  I did not test IE.

The only change that may have an effect on HTTPS behavior is in the
shutdown code. Currently (http.c, line 1225) it reads

	if(ssl != NULL && strstr(u_agent, "MSIE") != NULL)

Try changing that to

	if(ssl != NULL)

and see if it helps.[...]
