<p>This plugin allows your WordPress blog to output pages compressed in gzip<br />
format if a browser supports compression.</p>
<p>HTTP compression generally means a 60-80% REDUCTION in the size of your pages<br />
(broadband usage) as well as an INCREASE in download speeds of 3x to 4x.</p>
<p>To test if your blog is using compression use the following link:</p>

Check “Bandwidth saved by compression” on the left hand side.</p>

will keep working but those plugins will stop caching new pages.</p>
