-1 - I am seeing coredumps in production with HTTP/2. There is a fix for this and I am currently tracking down exactly why I am seeing this; https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/4225 <https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/4225>

I will spin a RC1 with a few more changes later today.

Thank you,
