Hi,

I've fed a list of ftp:// URLs to wget on stdin, expecting that the same
connection would be used for all transfers, as all used the same host name.
Transferring many small files this way has a massive overhead, so it would
be nice if connection reuse could be added in this case as well.

Yes, this is an old feature request. I added it to the wget bugtracker
because I just found it in the mailinglist.
