Usually compression is provided by the webserver, but maybe oursis not configured to do that. I think we're the only distro toprovide compressed isos.

Really? Most distribution ISOs use squashfs or similar withXZ/LZMA compression. It doesn't make sense to compress that overthe wire.

That said: XZ compression currently saves 27% (559M -> 405M).Transparently serving pre-compressed ISOs with nginx (gzip level9) would save about 25% (559M -> 415M), which is surprisinglysimilar.


Kind regards,
