Is there a problem with my Keep Alive settings? - SriniR - 09-26-2019 01:19 PM I am struggling to understand this ... When I run a test for one of my test websites, I am seeing that keep-alive is enabled. https://www.webpagetest.org/result/190926_T5_606b653540713c783ad802a032508e59/ https://i.ibb.co/ZV7d9MX/keep-alive-1.png But when I take a look at the connection view, https://www.webpagetest.org/result/190926_T5_606b653540713c783ad802a032508e59/1/details/ I see that there are several TCP connections being made for the domain. https://i.ibb.co/zrQj8rv/keep-alive-2.png I am trying to understand why several TCP connections are being made although keep-alive is enabled. And what can be done to ensure that only one TCP connection is made? Thanks!

To get most of the requests going over a single connection you need to support HTTP/2 (which requires HTTPS)
