I just read an article about speeding up web page downloads using
compression:
http://webdesign.about.com/od/speed/ht/website-compression.htm
The article includes the url of a compression test site:
http://www.gidnetwork.com/tools/gzip-test.php
I work on several PHP sites that I could use this on if it's beneficial,
but I thought I'd ask for suggestions here first. Does anyone have
experience using this, and is there a down side? Are there more settings
available than the article mentions, since the increasing levels of
compression have decreasing returns is it possible to choose the level
of compression you want?
TIA,
Mike
