Michael,

do you know the browser plugin 'YSlow'
(http://www.yahooapis.com/yslow/)?

It's an addon for firefox/firebug and has often helped me analyzing and
optimizing webapps. Even if not following all advices it still gives a
nice overview of all used components. Example screenshot of "Loading
empty SqueezeCenter Homepage" attached.
In the age of Web2.0 and the extensive use of JS-Libraries adding
compression (deflate/gzip) to those files and/or expire-headers
improves the load/response times.

In case of SC7 expire-headers are already set to some elements but
there's no compression at the moment. As this brings a few performance
penalties to the server (beware of those light NAS boxes) it'll sure
help all those controlling the SqueezeCenter over a non-LAN connection
(Internet, VPN, weak-WLAN, ...)

Have you or somebody else considered adding compression support to SC?
With the much heavier JS-based SC7 it's a valid consideration...IMHO
:-)

thanks and kind regards,
Markus
