-       To boost the performance of pipelined requests to closer
-       match that of a non-proxied environment Squid can try to fetch
-       up to two requests in parallel from a pipeline.
+       HTTP clients may send a pipeline of 1+N requests to Squid using a
+       single connection, without waiting for Squid to respond to the first
+       of those requests. This option limits the number of concurrent
+       requests Squid will try to handle in parallel. If set to N, Squid
+       will try to receive and process up to 1+N requests on the same
+       connection concurrently.

+       NOTE: pipelining requires persistent connections to clients.

        WARNING: pipelining breaks NTLM and Negotiate/Kerberos authentication.
