Neither. I blast the server with GET requests using h2load. In the h2 case, 
this will send up to 100 requests in parallel. I want to see how mod_http2 
keeps up with this extreme case and what effect scheduling improvements have.

In a real world browser setup, you need to introduce some RTT etc as you well 
know. I did that using Chrome for Apache Core in Budapest, using the Apache 
landing page as a sample. Maybe I should revisit that with the current version 
and examine changes.
