- infogulch 12y agoIn chrome I get http: 3.2-3.9s, https: 1.8-2.6s. Try it a couple more times, maybe it was a fluke. Edit: And for firefox: http: 2.6-3.8, https: 2.9-3.8. Edit2: Changed times to ranges.
- christop 12y agoThis website is basically a fancier version of https://http2.golang.org/gophertiles https://http2.golang.org/gophertiles While cool, both websites are making an unfair comparison to the way that HTTP/1.1 is normally deployed for such sites, as neither demo uses hostname sharding.
- infogulch 12y agoI noticed that for https in chrome the images load (mostly) in order, whereas for http they're loaded in random order. However in firefox both cases load in order. Why does chrome load resources in random order in http?
