The test is a lie. While I don't doubt improvements in http/2, this test uses "Connection: close" on the http/1.1 test, which means for each tile there needs to be a tcp connect and TLS handshake. This is not representative of real world.
In http/2 the "Connection: close" header is meaningless and all the tiles come from the same connection.
