> If you just have clear-text mp4 with no auth, I don't think anyone's suggesting that there's NO authentication. Authentication is a relatively trivial, commonly-accepted necessary nuissance that is distinct from DRM.

This is really fun! Can you make the default wallpaper higher-res? Specifically 5120x1440 -- or even double those sizes for hi-dpi displays. Right now I'm looking at some very pixelated art. But I love the default wallpaper!

Yesterday while writing code to parse MP4 metadata, I learned that MP4 uses an epoch from the year 1904. (I was suspicious when I saw the timestamp start with a 3). Turns out there's lots of epochs, and the Unix epoch doesn't have

Hey cool! Caddy plugin? :D I might be quite interested in this.

Thanks for that PR!! We greatly appreciate it.

Can someone help me understand why browsers don't support Zstandard yet? Caddy supports it natively, and it's quite good, if only browsers could decode it.

Processing multi-GB files in the browser is... fun. Doing that kind of thing on a server is easier. * I'm not justifying doing it on the server, especially for an application like this where yes: it can be done in the client.* But I d

Just wait'll you see what's possible with Caddy+Tailscale (currently, and coming soon)!

I don't think this forks Caddy. Rather, it is a Caddy plugin: https://github.com/dunglas/frankenphp/blob/main/caddy/caddy.... It uses mainline Caddy: https://github.com/dunglas&

Early Hints support was added to Caddy's proxy by Kevin Dunglas, the author of FrankenPHP. No fork required for Early Hints!

With this you don't need FastCGI. FrankenPHP is simpler and less complex: just run it directly from your Caddy web server.

They are distinct in Go. The standard library uses "HTTP keep-alive" to mark connections as idle based on most recent HTTP request, whereas TCP keep-alive checks only ACKs.

Thanks, we'll consider that, maybe as an option. Want to open an issue so we don't forget? I'd probably learn toward CUBIC: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUBIC_TCP (I implemented Reno in college, but tim

Caddy does connection pooling (perhaps differently than what Cloudflare's proxy does, we'll have to see once they open source it) just as Go does. But what Caddy does so well is scale well with the number of certificates/site

Hey, I mean, I do agree that a config file is "better" most of the time -- but having the CLI is just so awesome! :D

by mholt 4y ago
Absolutely. The plan is to make it opt-in for now, and then having a company sponsor the performance tuning would be very welcomed. Otherwise it'll probably sit until someone with the right skills/know-how and time comes along.

I'm also grateful that Dave, the original contributor of the metrics feature, isn't taking it personally. We love the functionality! Just gotta refine it...

What do you struggle with about the documentation or "more complex setups"? I was just on the phone recently with Stripe who has a fairly complex, large-scale deployment, and they seemed to have figured it out with relative ease.

Are you talking about HTTP keepalive or TCP keepalive? Keepalives can actually reduce the performance of a server with many concurrent clients (i.e. a benchmark test), and have other weird effects on benchmarks: https://www.nginx

by mholt 4y ago
Sure, we've already done this very real test in production a number of times and Caddy doesn't even skip a beat. (IMO that's the best kind of benchmark right there. No need to simulate with pretend traffic!)
