Some additional thoughts:

TFO.

Isn't SSL in Wget already rather slow? Due to the way SSL_Read()
is called in a SIGALRM-handler or separate Win32-thread for
all (?) HTTPS reads.

'run_with_timeout()' seems to waste 1000s of good cycles per
SSL-read (at least on Win32). Couldn't perhaps this be improved
to do use "a priori" pool of e.g. 10 alarm-handlers or threads?
Just my €0.02.
