HTTP keepalives just means you only need to negotiate two extra SSL connections instead of n (n being the number of images in the page). The overhead of that is certainly noticeable. If there's no actual benefit, then it shouldn't be in his list of "stuff you have to do (and nobody actually does)".

But for most websites, it is something you have to do. Ruining the layout of your page is about as bad as any other DoS attack for most of the afflicted users.
