network.http.pipelining was already off, and then toggling 
network.http.keep-alive to false seems to help! According to some 
Firefox docs (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.http.keep-alive) turning 
that option off will hurt performance. I wonder if there's something 
that can be done on the Twisted side to help.

Thanks!
