Real world test of whether using CURIE notation in URLs actually reduces filesize after gzip compression.
Example taken from:
Results:
Before gzip compression:
$ wc -c < example.json
38855
$ wc -c < example_curie.json
34989
After gzip compression:
$ gzip -9 example.json
$ wc -c < example.json.gz
2225
$ gzip -9 example_curie.json
$ wc -c < example_curie.json.gz
