gzip makes it quite a bit less than 20%

i dont believe gzip typically applies to html, only to loaded text-based resources, js/css. i could be wrong. either way that page's html does not come in compressed.

  gzip definitely applies to html in addition to js/css.

  Gzip applies to whatever it's configured to apply to, and text\html is likely the most common mimetype gzipped. tutorspree does indeed load with gzip: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: nginx/1.1.19 Date: Fri, 10 May 2013 21:19:05 GMT Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Transfer-Encoding: chunked Connection: keep-alive Vary: Cookie Content-Encoding: gzip

    i'm not sure where you're getting those headers from, this is what i'm seeing: Connection Keep-Alive Content-Length 59127 Content-Type text/html; charset=utf-8 Date Fri, 10 May 2013 21:24:38 GMT Server nginx/1.1.19 Set-Cookie .... Vary Cookie EDIT: i ran it through IE and got these headers too. Then ran it through some other online header-check sites and got your headers in one instance. the majority of my tests resulted in these: http://www.seochat.com/seo-tools/check-server-headers/?go=1&tool=38&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tutorspree.com%2Fbrowse%2Fnew-york-ny-tutors%2Fcomputer-programming&imageverify=JG84X&timehsh=4869395a5754453d&toolsubmit=Check+URL+Header http://www.seochat.com/seo-tools/check-server-headers/?go=1&...

      On Chrome Windows 7 x64: Content-Encoding:gzip Maybe you're looking at the wrong resource?

        i dont know what's going on. chrome here doesnt show gzip in the headers. various external header check tools also show no gzip. where else am i supposed to look?

      My guess (based on your other posts as well) is that you might be running through a transparent proxy that's stripping gzip. :-) I got my headers in Chrome on Windows 7.

To be fair, I suspect it still amounts for 20% of the gzipped size.
