Ever wondered how to kill off idle HTTP connections without dropping the ball? In this episode, Hussein walks through why you’d want a graceful shutdown, then shows you how HTTP/1.1 uses the Connection header and HTTP/2 leans on the GOAWAY frame—spoiler: there’s a performance twist to watch out for.
He timestamps the deep dives—4:58 for the why, 6:46 for HTTP/1.1, 12:26 on HTTP/2 costs, 17:40 on the GOAWAY magic—so you can jump straight to the good stuff. By 23:40, you’ll have a crystal-clear understanding of shutting sockets down like a pro.
