Ideas on Compression Protocol

2003-10-09 Thread Director General: NEFACOMP
Hi group,
I recently asked about Compression and security and got nice answers.

Now I have got a different question:
What are the disadvantage of using that client/server Compression protocol?

Does it increase speed? Does it decrease speed? Does it overload the server? The 
client?
Any ideas and/or thoughts are welcome.


Thanks,

 We used compression on a project with about 90 simultaneous users.
 Overall it sped things up (especially since most users were on modem
 dialups). Load on the client wasn't noticeable, neither was load on the
 server,

 The server did have two 2Ghz processors in though so compression of 90
 simultaneous streams shouldn't have been a problem =)

 On a standard 100mb switched lan, compression didn't make much of a
 difference, but there weren't any noticeable speed decreases either.
