Re: HTTP 2.0 in the clear and over TLS

No need to speculate about Google but in general content owners will have a
tough decision IMHO because TLS costs 1 additional round trip per domain at
minimum (and the number of domains per web site is increasing --
http://httparchive.org/trends.php#numDomains&maxDomainReqs). This gets to
be significant, especially if you are audacious about performance goals --
