  1. Understanding HTTP/2 prioritization Moto Ishizawa @summerwind

  2. Who? :-) • Platform Engineer @ Yahoo! JAPAN • Beacon

    platforms, Data pipelines • Reviewer of HPBN Japanese Edition • Sections: HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, WebRTC • HTTP/2 Japan Community • RFC7540 Japanese Translation, h2spec

  3. HTTP/2 Prioritization • HTTP/2 client controls the transmission order of

    resources by priority • Priority is expressed by dependency and weight • Priority is a hint, server may ignore it • In the browser, there is a possibility that the priority affects the rendering • Prioritization might adversely affect the critical rendering path

  4. Priority Tree 0 3 128 5 64 7 16 9

    16 Stream ID Weight Dependency

  5. Priority Tree 0 3 128 5 64 7 16 9

    16 All streams are set weight 16 by default. All streams depend on the Stream ID 0 by default.

  6. Priority Tree 0 3 128 5 64 7 16 9

    16 The priority of the stream is determined by the relative proportions of the weights. Stream ID 3 should receive two-thirds of available resources. The priority of the stream that depends on another stream is determined by the weight of dependent stream. Stream ID 7 should receive half of the resources of Stream ID 3.

  7. Implementation status Server Name Version Support nghttp2 1.0.2 YES H2O

    1.2.0 YES Apache Traffic Server 5.3.0 NO Browser Name Version Support Firefox 38.0.5 YES Chrome 43.0.2357.65 YES (Weight only) Edge 0.11.10074.0 (Preview) NO Safari 9,0 (Preview) NO

  8. Testing the prioritization of browsers • Test page • CSS

    in the <head> × 3 • Javascript in the <head> × 3 • JavaScript in the <body> × 3 • Image in the <body> × 3 • Size of all resources: 100KB • Server • nghttpx v1.0.1 <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Test</title> <link href="tests/1.css" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="tests/2.css" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="tests/3.css" rel="stylesheet"> <script src="tests/1.js"></script> <script src="tests/2.js"></script> <script src="tests/3.js"></script> </head> <body> <h1>Test</h1> <img src=“tests/1.jpg” alt="1"> <img src=“tests/2.jpg“ alt="2"> <img src=“tests/3.jpg” alt="3"> <script src="tests/4.js"></script> <script src="tests/5.js"></script> <script src="tests/6.js"></script> </body> </html>

  64. The prioritization strategy of browsers • Firefox builds the priority

    tree that is optimized for Web pages • Priority order: CSS, JavaScript, Images • Chrome reuses the prioritization strategy of SPDY era that is used only weight • The difference in weight is small… there is room for optimization! • Edge does not support the prioritization • It seems to control the download of the resource by the timing of request...

  65. Conclusion • HTTP/2 prioritization consists of dependency and weight •

    Client notifies the priority, server builds the priority tree • Each browser have different prioritization strategy • The use of priority dependencies may produce better results • Need to measurement the effect of HTTP/2 prioritization! • But there is no tool that can measure the prioritization of HTTP/2...

  66. Thanks!
