Description John Arthorne

Jetty supports SPDY so we should consider this for improved performance. Some docs on configuring Jetty for SPDY:

Some more info here:

It appears that at least for Firefox SPDY requires an https connection.

This work requires adoption of Jetty 9, which is Bug 444496

The work in progress for enabling SPDY on the Orion server is in branch anthonyh_spdy on the orion server.

One issue that became apparent is that SPDY and HTTP/2 needs to be enabled on the proxy because clients talk to the proxy and not to the server directly. 

I have raised Bug 470090 on the foundation to see how we can make this happen.

Jetty 9.3 supports HTTP/2 so we should target that version.
