-MQTT, FTP, PostgreSQL, SMB, DCERPC and NFS have each a `max-tx` parameter that can be customized.
+MQTT, FTP, PostgreSQL, SMB, DCERPC, HTTP1 and NFS have each a `max-tx` parameter that can be customized.
 `max-tx` refers to the maximum number of live transactions for each flow.
 An app-layer event `protocol.too_many_transactions` is triggered when this value is reached.
 The point of this parameter is to find a balance between the completeness of analysis
