Google Cuts Chrome Page Load Times In Half w/ SPDY

An anonymous reader writes "It appears as if Google has quietly implemented the SPDY HTTP replacements in Chrome (well, we knew that), and its websites. All its websites were recently updated with SPDY features that address some of the HTTP latency issues. The result? Google says the pageload times were cut about in half. SPDY will be open source, so there is some hope that other browser manufacturers will add SPDY as well."

Have no page load problems

My pages load plenty fast. What I notice is that when the page goes to google analytics that load process stops while waiting for the server. There was a time when pages would load partial content, and then go for the ads. Now, many pull the ads and analytics first. This would be good if the ad servers were fast, but the seem to be getting slower. Since google serves so many ads, it seems within it's power to make the web faster by making the ads faster. Perhaps, like MS, they want the web slow for all other browser, so Chrome seems so much faster.
