I've asked about it for my other website (which is not on a colo'd box,
so my ISP would need to install it globally for me :^) )

The problem with mod_gzip is that the server I'm dealing with right now
(putting mod_throttle on) has an average load average of 10 or so. :^)

Also, the bulk of the visitors are WebTV users, and, although I haven't
looked into it to be sure, I seriously doubt they support gzipped content.
(Besides, their boxes are quite slow, as well)
