Using just a few (but still more than one), however, could nicely balance congestion growth with better performance, especially on high-speed networks. As such, a micro-optimization is, again, how you probably need to fine-tune things on a low level to really benefit from it. What Does It All Mean? Clients and QUIC Discovery.
