Can HTTP2_HEADER_BUFFER_SIZE_INDEX be constexpr so that _receive_buffer is allocated with that value? Or do compilers not like that?

The issue here is the visibility of HTTP2_HEADER_BUFFER_SIZE_INDEX. It's not included from this file. I didn't want to change the dependencies of the files. I presume that was why it didn't previously use the buffer size index.
I couldn't find any good common header to move the definition to either.

Sounds good. Thanks for interacting with the idea.

Internal testing shows this change increased performance on high RPS setups enough to warrant a code change. I've conditioned this change on the existing
ENABLE_MALLOC_ALLOCATORbuild flag so that it's opt-in.
