Hi Glen,
Actually, I stumbled upon the DEFLATE option when I searched for
"gzip" on my web host's wiki (http://wiki.dreamhost.com/DEFLATE). I
imagine some hosts allow gzip, some mod_deflate and some both. I
think mod_deflate requires Apache 2, so if your hosting provider's
server is an older Apache version, it probably won't work. Since this
is something that depends on the server, you should dig around in
your host's documentation or send their tech support an email and see
if they can help you with that. I hope your host allows DEFLATE,
because it's so ridiculously easy.

Glen, just put that .htaccess in the webroot and should work pretty
well, note that your server needs the deflate and headers modules
to be enabled.
Hope this can be useful to anyone :)

Where does that .htaccess file go? Just in the root? Or in every
folder that has a page?

I've found this to be the easiest and unobstrusive way to gzip my
files with a .htaccess file.
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
# Compress some text file types
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/css text/xml
application/x-javascript
# Deactivate compression for buggy browsers
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip

I also had the same thing happen.
14kb is only after it has been gzipped by your server.
The version you are downloading has been minified, Its up to you to
do the
gzipping.
