Yeah, cause bandwidth is limited to 1Mbit/s. And as u said, it is worth to add load on processor. I'm NOT sure how to estimate how much bandwidth can be freed from this option. My case: 1) I don't have many mail list users right now. 2) main bandwidth is occupied by FTP/http/Git,CVS repositoy. 3) There are 5 laptop, accessing internet with this router. Any suggestion on this gzip option? Should I use this option right now? > > > > Grant. . . . > ------------------------------------------------------ > Mailman-Users mailing list > Mailman-Users@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users > Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 > Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ > Unsubscribe: > http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/lida_mail%40163.com > > Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 -- Daniel.Li <lida_m...@163.com> PALFocus (http://palfocus.oicp.net) ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
