Tell me about it!

I see a similar thing with Chrome on my own json code.  It iterates 
through about 18-20 client-server exchanges and then the round trip 
delay gets progressively worse, *much worse*.  Chrome crashes at 
about iteration 22 or so.

I run IE and see what looks like 6 independent threads.  That does 
not look reasonable but IE does not crash either.  This is why I 
suggested trying more than one browser.

I am pretty sure I have a JSON problem hanging up its host.  I would 
not rule out that you have one too.  I am suspecting that any fixes 
you make on the Python side might be futile until whatever is hanging 
JSON (and Chrome) is squared away.
