The RFC touches on that issue:
> In order to protect the decoder from unreasonable memory requirements, a decoder is allowed to reject a compressed frame that requests a memory size beyond the decoder's authorized range.
> For broader compatibility, decoders are recommended to support memory sizes of at least 8 MB. This is only a recommendation; each decoder is free to support higher or lower limits, depending on local limitations.
As a corollary, and in the absence of an explicit negotiation process between client and server, servers should probably avoid using a window larger than 8 MB.
- twotwotwo 8y agoAh, great that there's an official number. And does seem like incentives are aligned for servers to try to do the reasonable thing.
