Since there isn't enough details and the answers to Priscilla's questions would help us. I'll continue the speculative guessing game with a few spare minutes.....
When I read the description I thought Jason meant that he made (one) request to a webserver which was taking a VERY long time to complete. 11 minutes later this request "failed" as per some message from the web browser. Guessing Scenarios: 1)The request being made to the server was really an http upload of a file and transferring the file was taking a long time. Do you see mid to high levels of network activity to/from the endhost running the web browser? 2)The request required backend operations by the webserver which were particularly weighty for this specific request. Is this specific request a particularly big query? Do similar queries over smaller time periods, datasets, or whatever dimension (you have to scale down the workload) also take this long? Have you checked server logs? I assumed this only happens for a specific type or subset of the queries you launch so there should be something to point you in the right direction. Also the specific timeout on the client side(web browser) would be helpful. Is it the tcp session which is dropping, an error message delivered from the webserver due to an application timeout, ...
