There was some knowledge floating around that 860 bytes was the
optimal size, I think it was from an Akamai engineer or something,
but the HTML 5 Boilerplate server configs use 256 bytes, and I
actually have HTML content that is less than 860 bytes, so I guess
I could benefit from compressing it. gzip compression is costly
for the compression side, but very quick for the client, so this
is a good thing.
