Abstract
Optimize system performance by enabling data compression
Body
If you're looking for ways to optimize system performance, consider enabling data compression on the IBM HTTP server. You can use the Apache mod_deflate module to improve response time in
environments that have low bandwidth and high latency. The Apache
mod_deflate module compresses output from your server before the data is
sent to the client over the network.
Setting the compression level is to 3 provides minimal CPU usage and
a decent benefit from the compression. You can also set the compression
level to 6, which provides even more compression benefit with a small
CPU overhead.
The wiki now has detailed, step-by-step instructions for enabling data compression on the IBM HTTP server.
