There is no direct relation between how many windows the user have open
and how many connections his browser have to the proxy.
If you disable the use of client-side persistent connections then there is
a relatively close match in how many concurrent objects a users browser is
downloading and the number of connections there is to the proxy, but there
still is no relation to the number of windows. It may simply be a single
page with a lot of inlined objects, large framesets or whatever.

See delay pools. Very effective if your concern is bandwidth usage.
