Sure.  There are up to 32 serial ports being serviced at the same
time.  They have priority.  The throughput on the encrypted TCP
connection is a lot lower than a cleartext one, but the difference
isn't that noticable for normal web page stuff *once the connections
are established*.

Exactly.

If there was just an HTTP header you could set in that first response
to tell the browser that there's only one CPU here: the more
connections you open, the longer the whole thing is going to take...

I remember setting up an internal gopher server for the product group
I worked in back in 19<mumble>.
