http compression on a dynamic page? Yes, it'll make the stream faster but
the actual content is the same. Even with white space management turned on,
CF has extra space that can't be removed by a web server based compression
engine (at least not efficiently). If I'm wrong, please let me know as I
have limited experience with webserver based compressors.

Why not just enable HTTP compression on the web server?
