Just a suggestion, why don't the web admins turn mod_gzip on? There are 
no downsides, and it would likely make a fairly large impact on 
bandwidth bills. Think of all the people browsing the PG documentation 
(myself included). Not only would bandwidth bills go down, 
responsiveness on the docs would be higher as well.

Even if there is no bandwidth saving (if your b/w is free for instance), 
I'm of the opinion that mod_gzip and mod_deflate should be used unless 
there is a compelling reason not to.

Sorry if this has been discussed before, but I thought it was worth 
mentioning on the off chance it hadn't.

- Naz.
