Why is disabled Keep-alive ???

Author: joanheyCreated Jun 5, 2026Updated Aug 31, 2026

I didn't know why the results were so bad in the last results !!!

Later I read that keep-alive is disabled !!!

Anybody can send me to the issue that explain this change ?

If we don't use keep-alive, that's only necessary in the ancient H1.0, because by default is enabled in H1.1, H2 and H3. And we are disabling the default . If we test without keep-alive we are not testing the framework performance, we are testing the kernel performance.

I can explain more, but I prefer to listen the reasons for this change.

Thank you.
