From a3a0c0e0fc5b5e5ef81be114410c01254e473006 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: delvedor Date: Thu, 7 May 2020 08:18:11 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] http: added scheduling option to http agent In some cases, it is preferable to use a lifo scheduling strategy for the free sockets instead of default one, which is fifo. This commit introduces a scheduling option to add the ability to choose which strategy best fits your needs.
