When testing a GSWeb application in "rapid turnaround mode" with Firefox, ie via localhost:9001, multiple clicks on WOHyperlinks and WOSubmitButtons are needed.

When looking at traffic using Wireshark it's clear that persistent connections are being used by Firefox and that GSWeb is claiming to be HTTP/1.1 compliant.

Persistent connections don't appear to be working, and this is confirmed by turning off the persistent connection behaviour in Firefox configuring network.http.keep-alive to be false at which point the user experience is corrected. This is not a good solution.

Modifying GSWHTTPIO.m _sendMessage to always send a connection: close header exhibits correct user experience. Either this should be set as default behaviour or the keep-alive functionality has to be corrected.
