Is there any further example of this gzip compression that also using the sync.Pool
as per @mappu said ?
Here's an updated version if anyone's interested: https://gist.github.com/CJEnright/bc2d8b8dc0c1389a9feeddb110f822d7
In the case of serving a file, would it be an option to look for an already compressed version of the file?
For max compression:
gzip.NewWriterLevel(w, gzip.BestCompression)
Content negotiation is overrated. Make way for CONTENT DICTATORSHIP!
Pure gold, was just seeking for a solution and found this 😄
