+Subject: [PATCH] HTTP/2: per-iteration stream handling limit.
+
+To ensure that attempts to flood servers with many streams are detected
+early, a limit of no more than 2 * max_concurrent_streams new streams per one
+event loop iteration was introduced.  This limit is applied even if
+max_concurrent_streams is not yet reached - for example, if corresponding
+streams are handled synchronously or reset.
+
+Further, refused streams are now limited to maximum of max_concurrent_streams
+and 100, similarly to priority_limit initial value, providing some tolerance
+to clients trying to open several streams at the connection start, yet
+low tolerance to flooding attempts.
