Chosen solution

Try this

Type in the address bar

about:config

Accept the warning.

In the page that appears, in the Filter box, type

network.http.max-connections

Change the value to 32 (which is probably set to 256 in your case).

Close that page.

Restart the browser.

Actually 48 is the suggested value and 30 is also suggested to try as it was that before.
