The sequence I gave for counting the RTT includes fetching the html with
the script that wants to make the connection; until the client gets that
he cannot start with the ws connection. This is the typical situation
for ws connections and in the case the same h2 connection is providing
everything, it will be the normal case there too.
Client Server
- SETTINGS - SETTINGS
- GET /index.html
- 200 HEADERS + DATA
- :method CONNECT
- 200 HEADERS
- DATA ws handshake
- DATA ws handshake final
- DATA ... - DATA...
So after the h2 link is up, he needs 3 x roundtrips to send some ws
data. With an optional PUSH_PROMISE that the client feels he can use...
- SETTINGS - SETTINGS
- GET /index.html
- 200 HEADERS + DATA
- PUSH_PROMISE ws contains
ws handshake final
- WINDOW_UPDATE (see below)
- DATA ...
- DATA...
What you are saying will save time I already assume is "for free" since
it happens during the time the HTML is fetched.
If I am missing the point, could you edit the above copied unchanged
from my earlier mail to show me the point I am missing?
