It's been six years now since #curl dropped support for HTTP/1 pipelining.

I have never regretted it.

curl says bye bye to pipelining

HTTP/1.1 Pipelining is the protocol feature where the client sends off a second HTTP/1.1 request already before the answer to the previous request has arrived (completely) from the server. It is defined in the original HTTP/1.

I implemented HTTP pipelining for Safari and Mobile Safari in the 2000’s. It was very tricky to get right, had to aggressively fall back when errors were detected and I’m not sure if it’s still on anymore. Seems like it’s just straight not needed with QUIC right?

@unsaturated HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 are way better technologies to get basically the same benefits (and more)
