World Flags mod_spdy Demo

This page, which loads 196 small images, loads over twice as fast over SPDY as compared to plain HTTPS.

Without SPDY, in order to make more efficient use of available bandwidth when loading this page, one might use a web performance optimization technique like CSS spriting, image inlining, or domain sharding. With SPDY, these techniques are not necessary, as SPDY multiplexing makes optimal use of the available bandwidth.
