Click Here to report a problem you are having with this site.
This site is constantly under development.
It's where I get to test out various PHP tricks.
One of the neater tricks is support for cached gzip compression of html content.
Take a look at the data actually being delivered across the wire to your browser,
if your browser supports gzip, most of the html data will be compressed prior to
delivery.
Example:
Normal html for home page : 9205 bytes (2.5 sec on 28.8 kbps)
Compressed html : 2565 bytes (0.7 sec on 28.8 kbps)
That's 3.5 times faster.
And since the gzip'ed data is cached, the server side CPU load to compress is
greatly reduced.
However, like anything new or under development, problems may arise.
I'd appreciate feedback about any problems you might be having.
Thanks,
Daxbert
