Hi, Can I get input on the following: Uncompressed library: 15k Compressed library, but using the PHP engine (ie ob_start()): 3.5k Which would be better? Obviously from the client perspective compressed would be better, but from the servers perspective...? An increase in the amount of time to put the file on the pipe, or an increase (no matter how small) in load because of the PHP engine and compression. Thanks. What do you mean by compressed lib? JS?

If you cache your compressed libs on disk, your total processing on the php end should go down.. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Rene Veerman, creator of web2.5 CMS http://mediabeez.ws/
