I have also seen this a few times over the last year with Polipo 1.0.4-1+lenny1 after using http://maps.google.co.uk/ Unfortunately it's not been reproducible and I haven't managed to save any logs. As I've been charged for excessive bandwidth usage as a direct result I'm afraid I've had to stop using Polipo for the moment. If it helps I could try re-enabling it to see if I can capture anything, but I don't have any experience with tcpdump. In the past Google maps appears to have had issues with pipelining through Polipo, but it seems to have been better more recently. The client has been Iceweasel running on another Lenny machine, if it makes any difference.
