A system and method for managing connections between a server and a plurality of clients at a network connection management device is provided. The method comprises maintaining at least one connection to the server, receiving requests from the clients, transmitting the requests to the server, receiving responses to the requests from the server, and monitoring a server response time for a selected request sent to the server, the server response time for the selected request being the time elapsed between transmitting the selected request to the server and receiving a corresponding response from the server. A method according to the present invention may also include basing the number of connections to the server on the server response time.
