ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

HTTP pipelining

HTTP Pipelining is like a hallway with lots of doors. When you send a request to a website, it's like walking down the hallway. Each door is like a command. So if you open a door, it sends a single command to the website. But if you open multiple doors at the same time, it sends multiple commands at the same time and lets the website say yes or no to each request. That's pipelining!
