RE: My Lotus Notes Christmas List: gzip shrinks webpages> 50% ~Umberto Nongeroson 31.Dec.03 10:36 PM a Web browser General 6.5All Platforms
It doesn't fix anything -- it just moves the location of the bottleneck. If you are thinking of using GZIP as an excuse to build heavy pages, then you're deluding yourself severely. Good design can shrink pages by much more than service-time compression can, while reducing (rather than increasing) the server load at the same time.
