What a ridiculous statement.
He could just as easily make up a fake bandwidth usage number for marketing purposes rather than actually put unnecessary load on his servers by not using Gzip.
It's most likely down to him hiring sloppy developers. And judging by the source code on the site this is exactly the reason.
- bluegate010 14y agoAgreed. Very sloppy code.
- borplk 14y agowhere are you looking at the source code? I'd like to see too
- Too 14y agoI thought these top bandwidth usage lists are compiled by ISPs, not site owners themselves. In any case i don't think climbing those lists would be reason to disable gzip. In that case an easier method would be to just add lots of not rendered junk at the end of your html to beef up the data usage.
