-Both clients and servers SHOULD send a value of three or greater for the QUIC
-transport parameter `initial_max_uni_streams`.
+The performance of HTTP/3 connections in the early phase of their lifetime is
+sensitive to the creation and exchange of data on unidirectional streams.
+Endpoints that set low values for the QUIC transport parameters
+`initial_max_uni_streams` and `initial_max_stream_data_uni` will increase the
+chance that the remote peer reaches the limit early. In particular, the value
+chosen for `initial_max_uni_streams` should consider that remote peers may wish
+to exercise reserved stream behaviour ({{stream-grease}}). Limits can be
+increased post handshake at the cost of additional RTT, for example by
+exchanging `STREAMS_BLOCKED` and `MAX_STREAMS` QUIC frames. To reduce the

The receiver should know when all the flow control credit is used(ie: it knows the current max and it knows the amount used in order to enforce limits), so when it gets to or close to 0, it should know the peer is unable to send.

In practice, the current text advises providing enough window for 2RTTs I believe, which is reasonably generous.
