 - **Tiny binaries**: If you are creating an application where tiny binary size is a key priority, you might find Isahc to be too large for you. While Isahc's dependencies are carefully curated and a number of features can be disabled, Isahc's core feature set includes things like async which does have some file size overhead. You might find something like [ureq] more suitable.
 - **WebAssembly support**: If your project needs to be able to be compiled to WebAssembly, then Isahc will probably not work for you. Instead you might like an HTTP client that supports multiple backends such as [Surf].
-- **Rustls support**: We hope to support [rustls] as a TLS backend someday, it is not currently supported directly. If for some reason rustls is a hard requirement for you, you'll need to use a different HTTP client for now.
