(Sorry, I seem to have mistakenly appended this question to another thread. 
Reposting hopefully as its own topic.)


I am serving 256x256-pixel tiles (OpenLayers.Layer.XYZ) from my own local web 
server, which are overlayed on top of a Google base map.

If I repeatedly double-click on the openlayers map to zoom repeatedly, it fires 
off a rapid stream of tile requests to the local web server. However, I find 
that if often fails 
to fire the complete set of necessary requests for the final zoom level. For 
instance, suppose I zoom quickly from level 3 to level 8 by double-clicking on 
the center of the map five time. When I get to level 8, it might fill in only 
three of 
the nine visible overlay tiles in the view. As far as I can tell, the other six 
XYZ tile requests never were made by openlayers to the local web server. Is 
this expected behavior? For instance, is there some point at which 
openlayers stops issuing tile requests if there are too many requests 
outstanding?

(In my case it may take a few seconds to generate each tile, so there is indeed 
a backlog of tile requests for those zoom levels I quickly passed through. The 
Google basemap tiles, on the other hand, never seem to get lost, but I don't 
know if this is because they are served more quickly than my tiles, or what.)
