Summary (Continued)
HTTP/1.1 is up to twice as fast as HTTP/1.0 (elapsed time) for retrieval
Server performance also gains when using pipelining
Transport compression saves bandwidth, and increases speed
Server performance also increases when using pipelining
Total implementation time was about 2 people for two months
Client implementation required some care and effort; server implementation was very easy, though some care and output buffering makes a significant difference in performance
