Is that better / recommended? Is that recommendation documented? ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-07-26 13:48:10] rtrtrtrtrt at dfdfdfdf dot dfd it's not hard to let take care about compression in the webserver, but it doesn't make enough problems for some people when it's done based on request-headers so that it works without issues :-) and hell: the webserver even can decide if brotli or gz compression satisfies the client, way too less troubles ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-07-26 13:41:55] cmb@php.net Oh, is it that hard to enable that setting in php.ini, or even better, not to use it, but rather configure your Webserver to do that? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-04-21 08:02:55] olafvdspek at gmail dot com Description: ------------ It'd be nice if output compression was enabled by default. Perhaps based on content type such that text/* and javascript are compressed. Obviously the default should not cause troubles with scripts that enable compression themselves.
