Description:	Compression of ASP.NET web page output. This reduction in the amount of data to be transferred to the client results in a decrease in network traffic and corresponding improvement in page load speed. This class supports the Deflate and GZip compression methods, which are acceptable by most web clients in common usage today. Most browsers now support the HTTP 1.1 standard Accept-Encoding header, informing the server of which types of compression they support. MSINC.Web.Compression works by inserting a custom HttpModule into the ASP.NET filter stream, which intercepts and compresses the page data according to the received Accept-Encoding header before it leaves the server. Configuration allows the developer to set the default compression level and compression type, as well as define which pages or MIME types should be excluded.
