One more thing I forgot to add. When running with proxy_run.config,
the test takes a very long time in running the part of the code
labeled 'ts' where the url is startup_test/startup_test.html. Why is
it so? I commented this part of the code and let only tp run. Is that
ok? By the way, I notice that the standalone/proxy_setup.config has
part of the code with 'ts' commented as well.
