Hi there,
I see by default gzip is ON. That’s sound! But what if I want turn it off? I need perform some tests and see difference between turned on and off gzip.
I found this htaccess line of code RewriteRule . - [E=no-gzip:1]
Bot it seems doesn’t work…
Thank you

Hi,
You can disable gzip compression by disabling the two modules that handle it:
sudo a2dismod deflate
sudo a2dismod gzip
Make sure you restart Apache after doing that:
sudo service apache2 restart
