amedee Report post Posted January 11, 2009 Reminder: I gave you 200 USD so the elm files would be gzipped. At least that was my understanding of that transaction (see this topic, I already posted the paypal transaction id in the windows update thread).Your replies in that thread seemed to indicate that we could expect that to happen with this update... Oops, sorry about that, I forgot :/ Anyway, we settleed the issue via PM. I'm curious about the outcome. Are the files gzipped, or aren't they? And if they aren't, can I do that myself without any breakage? On my own responsibility of course, but will it work in theory? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Entropy Report post Posted January 12, 2009 Yes, you can gzip your files but keep in mind that this has not been fully tested, so there might be problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Learner Report post Posted January 12, 2009 At one time the cursors.bmp file couldn't be gzipped, but I think that issue has been fixed. The reason that the files aren't gzipped initially is it actually makes the download larger, since compressing a compressed file makes it larger. I know of a few people that gzip their files and it sometimes improves performance with less disk I/O and better disk caching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
