  It’s mostly about performance. Caddy’s Go-based garbage collector starts to negatively impact performance at high load. It looks something like:

  server {
      listen 443 ssl http2;
      server_name example.com;
  
      ssl_certificate     /etc/nginx/ssl/fullchain.pem;
      ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/privkey.pem;
  
      location / {
          proxy_pass http://localhost:3000/;
  
          proxy_set_header Host $host;
          proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
          proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
      }
  }

    How do you know which headers to set? I couldn’t find any documentation when I last tried (but that was some years ago now).

      It can be specific to the web application but generally speaking you’d want to pass the protocol, client IP address, etc.
