The key bits are: - Fix HoL blocking - Only require one TCP connection - Define a mechanism for advising clients of the proxy to use Transparent proxies pay TCP setup and window opening etc on each site. Non-transparent proxies aren't trivially offered today. Head of line blocking affects mobile significantly, and even a 2.0 proxy doing 1.1 conversion could support client driven prioritisation amongst the N backend connections *it* is making. [BTW: this seems like yet another reason to have clients drive the HoL prioritisation stuff]. -Rob
