Agreed. And it would be even better if all the content was pre-compressed (e.g., with a cron job: gzip -9 *) rather than doing it on the fly. I tried using Apache MultiViews to served pre-compressed static content, but to no avail. The idea was Apache would map a request for index.html to index.html.gz and serve the precompressed file instead. In the same way that language encoded files are mapped: index.html -> index.html.jp . Has anyone managed to get content negotiation to work for pre-compressed static content? ... this is the ideal scenario speed-wise.
