Thanks Michael, I'll check that out later.
Meanwhile I found a web page which seems to do pretty much the same:

If you view the response headers of the page, you'll see something like:

Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Content-Encoding: gzip
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Cache-Control: no-cache,no-store
Date: Fri, 02 Feb 2007 14:28:05 GMT

The second line tells you (and the web browser) that the page is gzipped.

If you install the Web Developer extension for Firefox, there's a selection
called View Document Size.  Here's a sample from that output:

Documents (1 file)      3 kb (17 kb uncompressed)
Images (6 files)        1 kb
Objects (0 files)
Scripts (1 file)        1 kb (18 kb uncompressed)
Style Sheets (9 files)  31 kb
Total   36 kb (67 kb uncompressed)

Pretty handy, yes?
