 # Static Table
 
+This table was generated by analyzing actual internet traffic in 2018 and

We started from an automated query for data, then:

- Sorted the entries into the three tranches described in the comment; the sizes are dictated by the QPACK instruction space, but the selection of which things go in each tranche is a mix of data and judgement.
