/// # Performance and security parameters for trillium-http.
///
/// Trillium's http implementation is built with sensible defaults, but applications differ in usage
/// and this escape hatch allows an application to be tuned. It is best to tune these parameters in
/// context of realistic benchmarks for your application.
///
/// Long term, trillium may export several standard defaults for different constraints and
/// application types. In the distant future, these may turn into initial values and trillium will
/// tune itself based on values seen at runtime.
