|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
Happy eyeballs is an algorithm that attempts to connect to both IPv4 and IPv6
|
|
|
|
|
addresses for dual-stack hosts, preferring IPv6 first for \fItimeout\fP
|
|
|
|
|
milliseconds. If the IPv6 address cannot be connected to within that time then
|
|
|
|
|
a connection attempt is made to the IPv4 address in parallel. The first
|
|
|
|
|
connection to be established is the one that is used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The range of suggested useful values for \fItimeout\fP is limited. Happy
|
|
|
|
|
Eyeballs RFC 6555 says "It is RECOMMENDED that connection attempts be paced
|
|
|
|
|
150-250 ms apart to balance human factors against network load." libcurl
|
|
|
|
|
currently defaults to 200 ms. Firefox and Chrome currently default to 300 ms.
|
|
|
|
|
.SH DEFAULT
|
|
|
|
|
CURL_HET_DEFAULT (currently defined as 200L)
