Extension summary
HTTP/2 (based on Google's SPDY) makes the information exchange between browser and server significantly more performant. Websites and applications that upgrade their infrastructure to support them are at a clear advantage.
This extension shows a lightning icon in the address bar that's blue if the page is HTTP/2 enabled, green if the page is SPDY enabled, and gray if neither is available.
Currently it leverages the browser API for determining this, which relies on the protocol used for the initial page request.
