Does there exist any useful statistical data out there to verify the

pipelining enabled for ages and have yet to come across a page that
doesn't work. Is the problem real or one of these myths that stay around
because people read on the internet that pipelining has problems so it
must be true?
You could look to see how many Apache 1.3.x webservers are out there
still via Netcraft, etc. Unless it's had a patch to it (I've not kept
up on Apache 1.3). My blog post [1] should help you figure out what
data to look for if you want to figure this out.
