Client

Additional context

it looks like http3 support is in progress here: #5999 (?). but this feature request is from 2021 so not sure whether it is still alive.
then there was a http2 support ticket here: #5631
but it was closed ?
note: support for http2 is there on many webservers now (compared to 2021 / 2022). so my thought was give this another bump..

Thanks for raising the question.
No, there is no is-progress work on http2 AFAIK.
The request is waiting for the champion, and it is not a low hanging fruit!

Nobody has volunteered to work on it, so it hasn't been started. The discussion is around HTTP/2 as well, I've updated the title there and will close this as a duplicate.

If you really want it, feel free to start working on a solution. But, I doubt you'll see a big difference in performance.
