I had been trying this with many sites of mine.

First of all go here
http://www.websiteoptimization.com/servi...index.html

Check your website speed and note down the page loading time at 56 KB per sec. [Just for reference]

Then from your admin panel disable Gzip compression.

And put this line of code in the very start of index.php file just below <?php

ob_start( 'ob_gzhandler' );

Open a new window and again go to http://www.websiteoptimization.com/servi...index.html

And check the speed. Now compare the both page loading times.

It will be lightning fast.

Thought this community has given me a lot. Its about time I return something to it.

Here is my forum http://www.nameslot.com using this same trick. On every page. It used to load in 14.2 secs on 56 KB modem.

Now it loads in 8.1 sec on 56 Kb Modem.

Stayed the same for me.. nothing happened

Zalaki, try to cut on some un-necessary HTML code, and remove debugging comments if they're visible. You can increase the GZIP compression level to 9 (from admin CP) if you want the maximum compression, but it uses more CPU usage as well.
