About HTTP/2
Released in 2015, Hypertext Transfer Protocol version 2 (HTTP/2 or H2) is the first significant upgrade over HTTP.
HTTP/2 is capable of loading multiple page elements in parallel over single TCP connection. It reduces the latency to serve requested content faster by doing the following.
- HTTP headers data compression
- Server push technologies

There is no concrete answer as it depends on client network speed, browser and many other factors. AKAMAI and Coudflare has demo site where you can experience latency and how fast it loads over HTTP/2 vs HTTP1.1
