Hi all!

Well, i wasn't expecting to generate such debate on this matter! :)
Thanks to all for the provided feedback. 

The async_http_client seems an interesting test to do, even though it doesn't solve the issue, "per se". 
I will try that tomorrow, 1st thing in the morning. 

@Ben Kaufman  The math exercise you explained makes sense. I was already doing some math and very close to the same results! Thanks mate!

Atenciosamente / Kind Regards / Cordialement / Un saludo,

Hello,

according to this discussion: https://kamailio.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/sr-users@lists.kamailio.org/thread/PUDC37HE52S26SHHVIHIH647LYLYP5AE/

and the linked PR in it, HTTP/2 should be available. Its probably something to tested, as certain features (e.g. HTTP/2 multiplexing) are deactivated in the http_async_client for example.

Cheers,

Henning
