another benefit of SSL wildcard certificates hehe

Firstly, Chrome has noticed that s.4cdn.org and t.4cdn.org are the same site (they have the same IP addresses and the certificate for s.4cdn.org is valid for t.4cdn.org as well: it’s a wildcard certificate for 4cdn.org) and so it doesn’t bother with separate SSL connection: one will do. It then requests resources from each of those domains across the same SPDY connection. To do that it simply specifies the correct Host in the SPDY request. These can be see in the chrome://net-internals view. Here are two requests on the same SPDY connection for different Hosts.

As you can see, the domain sharding worked in IE 10. There are multiple connections to the s.jgc.org and t.jgc.org domains downloading resources in parallel. And the same configuration worked for Chrome with SPDY because it detected that these shared a certificate and used a single SPDY connection for everything (including the initial page download).

In Chrome there was only a single TCP connection and a single DNS lookup needed despite the presence of three domains. The IE 10/SSL version was visually complete in 1100 ms and used 9 TCP/SSL connections (plus one extra for Google Analytics). The Chrome/SPDY version was visually complete 200ms (at 900ms) and used… a single SPDY connection (plus an extra connection for Google Analytics). If you’re interested the IE 10/SSL test is WebPagetest Test Result - Dulles : r.jgc.org/ - 12/13/13 20:05:07 and the Chrome/SPDY test is WebPagetest Test Result - Dulles : r.jgc.org/ - 12/13/13 20:05:55

For the best performance for the older browsers and the latest, shiny SPDY browsers domain sharding should still be used but using a certificate that covers the domains used means that only a single SPDY connection will be needed.

But for me it's too much expensive

Heads up to ensure SSL certificates use SHA-2 based signature algorithms
