RE: Update your STEEM apps! Big changes coming for 3rd party developers
https connections are exactly the same as wss connections, except they're "upgraded" https connections. Also, the fact they are now using keep-alive would negate your point that they're extracting some benefit by using "short-lived https connections".
Except, they do not scale well. Go try to load balance millions of websocket connections and see how that goes :)
Exactly.
We have difficulties with performance already. This approach will only worsen the situation.
