Small question on how to send multiple requests using a Java Spring WebClient to a HTTP2 enabled server, leveraging HTTP2 as client please.

I have a Java List/Iterator of payloads I need to send one after another to a third party server. I am the client.

The third party server, which I have no control over, was first HTTP1 only.

Recently, they migrated to HTTP2, and they now fully support HTTP2.

When it was still HTTP1 enabled, I was using this code: (note the http1Client vs http2Client), here is what I am trying

 private static Iterator<String> sendRequestsLeverageHttpTwo(Iterator<String> requestsPayload) {
        List<String> linkedList = new LinkedList<>();
        while (requestsPayload.hasNext()) {
            String requestPayload = requestsPayload.next();

            HttpClient http1Client = HttpClient.create().wiretap(true).protocol(HttpProtocol.HTTP11); // was using this when the server only supports HTTP1
            HttpClient http2Client = HttpClient.create().wiretap(true).protocol(HttpProtocol.H2); //now using this as the server supports HTTP2

            final WebClient webClient =
                    WebClient.create().mutate().defaultHeader(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_TYPE, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE, HttpHeaders.ACCEPT, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
                            .clientConnector(new ReactorClientHttpConnector(http2Client)).build(); //replace http1Client -> http2Client

            final String response = webClient.post().uri("http://the-http-two-enabled-server/api").body(BodyInserters.fromValue(requestPayload)).retrieve().bodyToMono(String.class).block();
            if (!"".equals(response)) {
                linkedList.add("OK");
            }
        }
        return linkedList.iterator();
    }

The third party server is now supporting HTTP2, I swapped for the http2Client.

Things "work", the third party server told me they are able to see in their access logs, all my requests are now HTTP2, happy.

The problem is, I realize on the client side, me, I am using HTTP2 here like HTTP1!

Meaning, candid as I am, I just swapped the HttpClient, and don't think I am leveraging any of HTTP2 technology.

Looking at this code, I am really just doing the same as before, but just with HttpProtocol.H2. I do not think this is fully leveraging the step up from HTTP1 to HTTP2, please correct me if I am wrong.

My question is, how to properly fully leverage the step up HTTP2 while sending this collection of payloads to the HTTP2 enabled back end please?

Thank you
