Package: apache2.2-common
Version: 2.2.9-6
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
Please consider enabling mod_deflate by default. For most sites, this is
a reasonable default in that it conserves bandwidth without eating undue
amounts of CPU (only HTML and the likes is compressed -- in today's
AJAX-heavy world you may want to add application/javascript to the
default list, though :-) ) and makes people's pages load a lot faster.
There shouldn't be many possible negative side effects either, possibly
excluding sites with reverse proxies that can't grok content
negotiation.

Ah, I'm just uninformed, then. Closing, thanks for fixing bugs before they
are reported. :-)
