# HG changeset patch # User Maxim Dounin # Date 1617830190 -10800 # Node ID 82e174e47663672d803b59ff0de7b13ff53158c6 # Parent 6d4f7d5e279fd18b1ae455abad6134f2a271b063 Changed keepalive_requests default to 1000 (ticket #2155). It turns out no browsers implement HTTP/2 GOAWAY handling properly, and large enough number of resources on a page results in failures to load some resources. In particular, Chrome seems to experience errors if loading of all resources requires more than 1 connection (while it is usually able to retry requests at least once, even with 2 connections there are occasional failures for some reason), Safari if loading requires more than 3 connections, and Firefox if loading requires more than 10 connections (can be configured with network.http.request.max-attempts, defaults to 10). It does not seem to be possible to resolve this on nginx side, even strict limiting of maximum concurrency does not help, and loading issues seems to be triggered by merely queueing of a request for a particular connection. The only available mitigation seems to use higher keepalive_requests value. The new default is 1000 and matches previously used default for http2_max_requests. It is expected to be enough for 99.98% of the pages (https://httparchive.org/reports/state-of-the-web?start=latest#reqTotal) even in Chrome. diff --git a/src/http/modules/ngx_http_upstream_keepalive_module.c b/src/http/modules/ngx_http_upstream_keepalive_module.c --- a/src/http/modules/ngx_http_upstream_keepalive_module.c +++ b/src/http/modules/ngx_http_upstream_keepalive_module.c @@ -159,7 +159,7 @@ ngx_http_upstream_init_keepalive(ngx_con ngx_conf_init_msec_value(kcf->time, 3600000); ngx_conf_init_msec_value(kcf->timeout, 60000); - ngx_conf_init_uint_value(kcf->requests, 100); + ngx_conf_init_uint_value(kcf->requests, 1000); if (kcf->original_init_upstream(cf, us) != NGX_OK) { return NGX_ERROR; diff --git a/src/http/ngx_http_core_module.c b/src/http/ngx_http_core_module.c --- a/src/http/ngx_http_core_module.c +++ b/src/http/ngx_http_core_module.c @@ -3758,7 +3758,7 @@ ngx_http_core_merge_loc_conf(ngx_conf_t ngx_conf_merge_sec_value(conf->keepalive_header, prev->keepalive_header, 0); ngx_conf_merge_uint_value(conf->keepalive_requests, - prev->keepalive_requests, 100); + prev->keepalive_requests, 1000); ngx_conf_merge_uint_value(conf->lingering_close, prev->lingering_close, NGX_HTTP_LINGERING_ON); ngx_conf_merge_msec_value(conf->lingering_time,
