I have a web application where the client will be running off a local server (i.e. – requests will not be going out over the net). The site will be quite low traffic and so I am trying to figure out if the actual de-compression is expensive in this type of a system. Performance is an issue so I will have caching set up, but I was considering compression as well. I will not have bandwidth issues as the site is very low traffic. So, I am just trying to figure out if compression will do more harm than good in this type of system.
