Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 Replying to [comment:26 caesarsgrunt]:
 > @Denis:[[BR]]
 > When does the function {{{save_mod_rewrite_rules}}} which you've added
 the code into actually get run?

 when you save permalinks.

 > Also, why not compress all content except images? We can use the sample
 code at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_deflate.html (with some
 of the comments stripped out...) :

 yeah, my suggest is based on theirs. But their doc's example is actually
 crappy. it mindlessly compresses audio files, video files, pdfs, etc.
 those are already compressed, and compressing them prevents some user
 agents to process them correctly. with the one I suggest, we only compress
 html/xml/css/js files.
