Hi, I wonder if there is something in the HTTP protocol that allow to either speed up or slow down the transfer of byte. I understood that back pressure is available in TCP which i am not an expert on. However how does the HTTP protocol signal it to the TCP Layer.
I could see in a webinar on the matter that using curl, one can use limit-rate and set a download rate for instance. Apparently this applies some form of back pressure on an AKKA HTTP implementation server. If someone could help clarify a bit this aspect that would be great. It seems to me that back pressure already exist in TCP/HTTP, and that AKKA Stream applies the same principle to more things than just TCP/HTTP. When it comes to TCP/HTTP, it just provide a nice interface on it.
