Using ASP.NET 2.0.
The HTTP compression that comes with IIS 6.0 is great for compression
downstream.
However, there doesn't seem to be any standard way of compressing upstream
(eg. on postback, to reduce size of ViewState etc).
Does anyone use any compression solutions for reducing the amount of network
traffic going upstream ?
You may find solutions that involve the installation of software on
both the server-side and client-side, but that doesn't solve the
problem when dealing with Internet users.
Most web applications are optimized by reducing the amount of data
transferred - such as by disabling the viewstate for unnecessary
controls. Besides, HTTP compression isn't supported by all devices/
browsers so in some cases, it's the only way to go.
