Does SPDY/HTTP2 concatenates responses?
http, http2, spdy
Solution
HTTP/2.0 does not (AFAIK) exist yet - it's still a proposed standard. But it seems likely that it will use similar connection handling to SPDY.
SPDY doesn't concatenate them it multiplexes the requests across the same connection - from the network's point of view the effect is the same.
Yes, you don't need to merge the content files by hand, yes they will be cached independently.
Problem
I have a question about SPDY/HTTP2: Normally you concatenate multiple CSS and JS files into one file to save requests and to get a better performance. I heard that SPDY/HTTP2 combines multiple requests into a single response. Would that mean that I don't need to pre-concatenate CSS and JS files anymore, because this is handled by the protocol? To say it in other words: Can I use `<script source="moduleA.js"></script>` and `<script source="moduleB.js"></script>` with SPDY/HTTP2 in the same way as I would use `<script source="allScripts.js"></script>` with HTTP1? Is this the same from a response performance point of view, but with the benefit of caching each file on its own, so that I can change `moduleB.js` and keep `moduleA.js` cached?
