Further inspection in <A HREF="chrome://net-internals">chrome://net-internals</A> showed that browser tries to send a request, times out after 60 sec, retries and then succeeds immediately. The key point is that it doesn't happen always. First couple of requests work fine, then all of a sudden one doesn't work.
