Hm, HTTP/1.1 at 15.5s, HTTP/2 at 23.72s

Yeah, I "can see the difference clearly", but I don't think it is the kind of difference they expected or intended.

Edit: Firefox 40 on Windows 7 at work. Will try at home as well.

Oddly enough, the Akamai demo someone else posted gives me 18.47s for HTTP/1.1 and 2.24s for HTTP/2.

6.41s HTTP/1.1 vs 2.51s HTTP/2 on FF42. Very nice! (Although when HTTP2 is going the FPS drops quite a bit.)

Can someone explain what exactly HTTP2 is doing differently to achieve such an improvement?

Mine was http/1.1 at 3.4~s and http/2 at 0.75s

edit: this was Chrome 44.0.2403.155 m on windows 8 64

What browser did you use? Are you sitting behind a proxy?

For me: HTTP/1.1 at 13.19s, HTTP/2 at 1.48s

Using exactly one connection and multiplexing all the files into it (parallel downloads with only one socket).
