Mac cl-http Crashes - a fix that worked for me
Since many people are having crashes with the Mac cl-http server I thought
I'd pass on a fix which almost entirely cured my own problem (my PowerMac
8100/100 with OS 7.5.1 & Mac CL 3.0p2 & cl-http 53.7 would hang after a
small number of transactions with a client). I turned off auto-image
loading, set the number of simultaneous connections allowed on the client
and server sides to 1, and set the connections buffer size on the client
side to 1K. It is possible that not all of these changes are needed, I
haven't tested all subsets. Netscape allows you to set these client side
parameters but Mosaic doesn't seem to, with the result that Mosaic crashes
my Mac cl-http server but a properly configured Netscape almost never does.
