The default is 1 also because of netiquette - it's generally frowned 
upon by webmasters if someone uses more than 1 concurrent request, or 
makes requests too often (without any delay) - and quite often all 
requests from such sources get blocked at the firewall level - 
sometimes, even whole IP classes get blocked.

So, t(h)read carefully ...
