Text based resources like JavaScript HTML, CSS files or JSON-RPC output are currently transmitted in uncompressed form. Output compression is one of most recommended and widely use optimization techniques for web pages.
Rough test shows that it can reduce the amount of data transferred from 2MB to 360KB. The compression has the biggest impact on JSON communication, mainly downloading of metadata (reduction from 1MB to 50KB).
