I went looking for an HTTP/2 replacement for [Ab](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/programs/ab.html) and found [h2load](https://nghttp2.org/documentation/h2load-howto.html). Perfect, awesome, just what I need. My first few test runs work fine, then as I'm ramping up test size...
That number at the end seems to be the number of failed requests. Tellingly, it happened after exactly 1000 successful requests each time. Restart h2load, get another 1000 successful requests. I tried `keepalive_requests` in my nginx config, but no luck. Finally, after going through the nginx source for instances of "1000", I found [`http2_max_requests`](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_v2_module.html#http2_max_requests), which defaults to 1000. Increase that to an enormous number, restart nginx, everything works fine.
