The Compression module
"squeezes" pages before they are transmitted to a client to speed up
output for end users. The module makes the size of transferred pages several times less, which
significantly increases the speed both for visitors and site administrators.
The module:
- decreases the size of the transferred HTML data by 4 to 20 times;
- works absolutely seamlessly and does not require any additional software to install
on the client side (most web browsers support HTTP compression);
- can determine (with a probability of 100%) whether a client supports data compression;
- substantially speeds up site browsing on the client side for both visitors and
administrators due to decrease of the data size and changes in load dynamics (images start
to load only after the compressed HTML is transferred and displayed to a visitor);
- compatible with any hosting service and uses only standard PHP modules;
- puts minimum possible load on the server processor;
- eliminates all errors in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 and higher.
