We're stuck on WinNT4 for various reasons, so using IIS compression
wasn't an option for us. Also, for non-IIS users, this CFX version
should still do the trick even if their webserver doesn't support
compression.

It's been running like a champ for us over the last three days on a
moderately high volume site. I can't imagine that the CFX overhead
would be that much higher than ISAPI overhead. CFX_GZip is a good
multi-threaded tag...

Very interesting... I will most certainly try this. Thanks for the
pointer!
