I'm sorry, I was incorrect. ra_serf does use pipelining on commit,
it's just that it only uses one connection, and the pipelining isn't
as extreme as it could be due to some details of the WebDAV protocol.
Basically there are bits where you need the return value of one
request in order to make another, so it can't just go totally nuts
like it does with pipelining on updates.
