HTTP/1.1 is constantly ahead when I run it on mobile connected to my Home WiFi.

Edit: /2 is faster when on first load. When I refresh, /1.1 is almost always faster.

ios, Safari, wifi (59 mbps on fast.com):

http/2 is 10 times faster on first load, 2-3 times on subsequent.

Windows, Firefox, Ethernet (220mbps on fast.com):

https/2 is ~0.1s (1.02s /2 vs 1.11s /1.1) faster on first load and ~0.2s faster on future loads. I'm tempted to say there are diminishing returns as your internet gets faster (latency is ~11ms atm).

In the test I've ran right now, HTTP/1.1 took around 3x the time it took HTTP/2 to finish, even after refreshes.
