<div dir="ltr">Hi Nginx Developers,<div><br></div><div><br></div><div style>Could someone explain what is the purpose to use blocked frame for SYN_REPLY frame in spdy implementation?</div><div style><br></div><div style>According to our investigation it makes it impossible to use spdy priorities because of blocked frames (since each stream is started with SYN_REPLY which is blocked there is no way how frames from subsequent requests can outrun previous request with lower priority in spdy output queue).</div>
