Because RAD tools shouldn't cater for the lowest common denominator, they should cater for the most popular configuration. Not having to set a bunch of common options each time you make a new project because of some edge-cases is a good thing. > Wow... aggressive... > What benefit do you have turning it on?

Because administrating webservers and writing web applications is my day job. Gzip increases responsiveness of a website for users - and if you're using AJAX (as a lot of TG apps will be) this is extremely important! I think it should be defaulted on because most people won't know about the option and probably won't turn it on if they just came across it. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
