Re: [libmicrohttpd] Regarding Flow control

[Santos Das]

Hi,

Just to add more, my application is single threaded and I am running MHD inside that. I don't create additional threads. I use suspend and resume as suggested earlier as I do async processing.

So, I am thinking how can we implement flow control in this scenario..

Thanks, Santos

Hi,

Could you kindly let me know how can we implement the flow control ? Protection against the badly behaving clients.

HTTP/1.1 servers SHOULD maintain persistent connections and use TCP's flow control 

mechanisms to resolve temporary overloads, rather than terminating connections with 

the expectation that clients will retry. The latter technique can exacerbate network 

congestion.
