The popularity of the web and the requirements
introduced by current web content have pushed for the development
of new techniques that meet these challenges and improve
the experience of the users. In particular, during the last years,
web browsers have taken aggressive measures in order to reduce
webpage download times. These measures have had a noteworthy
effect on the profile of web traffic. One of the most striking
consequences is that nowadays, more than 20% of the TCP
connections opened by a browser are left unused. In this paper
we describe these connections, explain why they happen and use
them as a simple way of identifying the traffic of different web
browsers. [--]
