We just enabled gzip compression for all Linux web servers. This will increase the performance of your site because pages will get served out faster to your viewers. This will also reduce your bandwidth usage on your account, supporting even more viewer then before under the same limits.
If you have an issue with gzip compression no your site, please let us know and we can exclude your site from the compression. Thanks.
To see how your site benefits from gzip compression, go to this website and type in your domain name at the top. You can look at any page on your website to see how well it works.
