Meta: Enabled HTTP Compression

I just enabled HTTP compression for all text content on my blog. (Images are hosted externally on a server I don’t directly control.) For anyone viewing my site directly, I’d be curious whether it seems to load faster, and of course if any problems are experienced.

    It certainly appears to load faster.

    Appears to draw comments faster, too. ;-)

    Yeah I was also able to read the text faster. And I find I can type faster when this web page is visible on my desktop — could be coincidence though. Will have to do more testing.
