Introducing HTTP/3 Prioritization
Extensible Priorities is a new standard for prioritizing data transfer in HTTP/3 connections. It enables clients to communicate their priorities for different resources, allowing servers to optimize bandwidth usage by serving more important requests first. This can significantly improve webpage loading times and user experiences. The standard also allows servers to override client signals, providing powerful tuning possibilities for proxies or other middleware components.
