How do you plan to force someone to work who isn't willing to, just to make sure everyone in the society gets equal wealth? The communists had a solution.

Give equal reward to everyone regardless of their contribution or success, and people lose motivation for work. After a while the nation as a whole collapses. We have seen it in the communist era.

Smartness is proven by one's ability in making a complex system simpler. If your engineers can't do it, they aren't really smart.

He will be up for surprise. HTTP with connection: keep-open can serve 100k req/sec. But that's for one client being served repeatedly over 1 connection. And this is the inflated number that's published in webserver benchmark

transfer-encoding: chunked, and then send data in 64kb packets. You need to tell the size of each packet at its header. Even then, it is an optional good practice, but not required by RFC.

Another relatively safe strategy : Don't buffer http data on server. Read a limited sized header and then stream the body to its request handler.
