  Well, for years our logs would fill up with these nasty warnings of "connection dropped", something like that. Naturally, you think that's just some badly configured client, mobile connection, something. But then why would it be configured to log that as a warning (or it may have even triggered an error). I think that was because when payloads are small the compression overhead makes them larger, which means the Content-Length is too small and clients would be terminating the connection early. And getting garbage or truncated responses. Ouch!
