# Blocking vs Non-blocking

The default behavior of the ring buffer is non-blocking, 
meaning that reads and writes will return immediately with an error if the operation cannot be completed.
If you want to block when reading or writing, you must enable it:

```go
	rb := ringbuffer.New(1024).SetBlocking(true)
```

## HTTP/2 Connections

The HttpURLConnection API is a blocking API. You make a blocking write to send a request, and a blocking read to receive the response.
