Is there any performance hit involved in choosing gzip over deflate for http compression?
We recently switched some of our sites from deflate to gzip and noticed a significant increase in cpu load on our servers. ...

Hello - I'm currently optimizing the performance on my company's site; when it was taking 6-10 seconds to download 2MB+ of our homepage and assets (the site is mostly Flash with a lot of media, so it's not 2MB of HTML and viewstate). There are a lot of things that will need to be done to get this download size down; but one thing I defi...
I see there are plenty of web sites out there that will do this, but I'd really like something I can run to diagnose our internal intranet servers that aren't exposed to the internet. And, with the budget of this project, free is pretty much my only option. Does anyone have any cool tools they can recommend? Or is there some cool fire...
How can i change static and dynamic compression for my asp.net website? i use DiscountAsp on IIS 7 servers and i don't think they could let me change the compression level on the appHostSetting file. Can something be done in the web.config file to change that level? ...
Unlike IIS7, in IIS6 the 'Compress application files' and 'Compress Static files' options are server wide so they apply to every website and virtual directory. I recently enabled it server wide and I'm beginning to see more and more places where things are being compressed that I don't want -- notably dynamically created images. Is the...
I have a c# client talking to a cherrypy(http/rest) webservice. The problem is i can't both turn on compression and caching at the same time. request.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip | DecompressionMethods.Deflate; By leaving out the above line I get the correct caching headers (If-None-Math,If-Modified-Since) while ...
When requesting a page with Gzip compression I am getting a lot of the following errors: System.IO.InvalidDataException: The CRC in GZip footer does not match the CRC calculated from the decompressed data I am using native GZipStream to decompress and am looking at addressing this. With that in mind is there a work around for...
I have a CGI application in C that creates an html page by saving a char* as a html page: void saveTextFile(const char *filename, const char *str){.......} called as saveTextFile("..\\index.html",outputFile); How do I use zlib to take as input the "outputFile" char array and output a zipped html page with appropriate headers? Wo...
I run an ASP.NET application on IIS 6.0. Usually I have compression turned on for both dynamic and static files. However, I've turned compression off temporarily, but "ScriptResource.axd" is still sent compressed. This does not feel like a misconfiguration, as "WebResource.axd" is not compressed. What is the difference between ScriptRes...
Okay, URL Routing is great. Extensionless URLS, SEO friendly etc. However, it seems that IIS 6 doesn't perform compression on sites that use Extensionless URLs. WildCard Mapping is on so Asp.Net can process the extensionless files, but is there any way to set these resources to be gzipped? ...
Hey guys!, Does anyone know what might be causing this to happen? The file is uploaded correctly, it has the right permissions, and the <script> tag points to it correctly. The command I ran on the file was: gzip file.js What could it be? ...
Is it possible to send pre-compressed files that are contained within an EARfile? More specifically, the jsp and js files within the WAR file. I am using Apache HTTP as the web server and although it is simple to turn on the deflate module and set it up to use a pre-compressed version of the files, I would like to apply this to files tha...
I have just created Javascript & CSS handler for optimization file size using both YUI Compressor & GZip or Deflate compressor depend on request header. The following code is used to compressing file by GZipStream class. But I found that it can reduce JQuery 1.3.2(YUI compressed) file size from 58KB -> 54KB only. public void GZipCompres...
I'm having issues with IIS7's static compression. I've read some of the other posts, and I'm out of options. Here's what I have: In the applicationHost.config, I've set up: <httpCompression directory="%SystemDrive%\inetpub\temp\IIS Temporary Compressed Files" staticCompressionDisableCpuUsage="100"> <scheme name="gzip" dll="...
Every so often recently, a subset of our users report seeing small snippets of page source, such as part of a declaration cut off abruptly, displayed in the middle of the page where you would expect the rendered element to appear instead. We know these users use IE6 instead of IE7, and have connections that can sometimes be very slow, ...
I'm interested on documentation of the deflate stream format or deflate algorithm which goes beyond RFC1951. Sample streams, implementation hints whatever may be interesting. ...
I am communicating to a Tomcat Server using a Java ME application on my mobile device. I was wondering if I could compress my requests/responses using Gzip to reduce the number of bytes sent over the network. ...
I'm seeing this issue. I have a relatively simple ASP.NET page with a gridview and some buttons. When I click a button, the page re-binds the grid and posts back. What's strange is that every other time I click the refresh button, the IE progress bar (in the status area) stays "on", signaling that the user that the page is still loadin...
Hi, I want to find about the HTTP 1.1 compression of the site I am talking to. I need to do it programmatically in Java. What I want to find out is: Does the server support compression for incoming requests? Does the server support compression for responses? Thanks in advance. ...
Hi, we hosted WCF services in IIS 5.1 wndows xp sp3 with httpBasicBinding. The data tranferered is huge in size and transfered every 1 minute.
