Gzip Woes

[sdo]

hey guys,

used YSlow for the first time lately, so I'm trying to optimize my sites here.. who wants to explain this to me:



These components are not gzipped:

* [HTTP headers] (1.5K) http://www.mysite.com/index.html.gz


WTFFFFFF

Thanks a lot in advance!

Since nobody is responding I'll give it a try.

I don't know much (read: anything) about gzipping, but from what you've posted I suspect you have a file/page with a gzip suffix (.gz) but the page is not gzipped, which might make the process slower.

Hope that helps.

Hmm,

I'm not so sure that that is the case; I gzipped the file myself using my CPanel's file manager.

Thanks for the input though, maybe your on to something that's over my head.
