Thanks Don,
While we're on the subject of HTTP acceleration as a "cheap" way to improve the user experience, has anybody else deployed Jerry Asher's
rlreturnz gzip encoding for AOLserver? (much like
mod_gzip for Apache)
Also, if its stable enough, are there any plans of putting it in the OpenACS AOLServer distribution?
Some links you may want to check:
Right now, we're running a
text-heavy press site - a great candidate for html gzip pre-encoding, and I'd like to increase the responsiveness of the site, especially since the traffic spikes up dramatically when breaking news is announced on the site.
Thanks,
