@zaire I'm already compressing (and sending "interestingly tweaked" gzip, png and jpeg payloads for their pleasure). It's worth remembering, though, that decompression is typically less CPU-heavy than compression. If I'm doing the compressing and they're doing the decompressing (and they're also able to deploy hundreds of thousands of machines to doing it) then they're always going to be able to exhaust my resources, be they bandwidth or CPU.
