There's another consideration that I once read someone put forward, which
is that the extra work of compressing files might reduce server load.
As the output content can be significantly smaller, the server process may
complete its request sooner, therefore being ready to accept a new request
sooner, and so a smaller process pool may be required to handle a
continuous stream of requests.
