https://developers.google.com/speed/articles/spdy-for-mobile- doesn't include DNS lookup times
- doesn't include packet loss
- doesn't compare to pipelining
First two mean the claimed speedup isn't measuring the whole real time. Third is just amazing... the stock Android browser even uses pipelining. Basically pipelining gives the same benefits as Spdy and they really, really don't want to admit this.
