I presume that's 15Mbyte/sec? If your network is gigabit, you should have a fair bit of headroom still though you're right it is quite a lot. Do you have the network segmented or are all servers on the same subnet/switches? > Our network equipment is quite well (Cisco 6500) but we are not the only > one who uses this network. > We thought about gzip CompressionLevel<=3. > > Do You still think it isn't good idea to turn the compression on? I think it's something you should be cautious with. I would test it carefully before you roll it out generally. Perhaps you can enable it for one server first. It inevitably takes time to do the compression so you will be adding latency. It's possible you won't notice it though. It will depend on your thin clients' cpu power as well as the server's. Ideally, you should also measure what effect the compression has on your bandwidth requirements (do you run mrtg or something on your servers/switches?), this would be very interesting to see.
