V3 introduces a major enhancement that allows the localproxy to dynamically create, manage, and tear down multiple TCP connections per serviceID simultaneously.

Some new use cases that we now support:

  • Loading complex web assets from a private web server. Browser implementations of HTTP may create up to 6 parallel connections to serve requests. Having the localproxy accept these connections simplifies the user experience by not requiring the use of a SOCKS proxy.
  • By extension, loading web pages over multiple tabs should result in little performance impact (barring bandwidth and system resource limitations) and allows for continuous data transfer over any number of TCP connections.
  • Opening many SSH sessions in parallel. For example, you may configure multiple port forwards using SSH -L
