Usually compression is provided= by the webserver, but maybe ours
is not configured to do that=2E I th= ink we're the only distro to
provide compressed isos=2E

Really? Most distribution ISOs use squashfs or similar with
XZ/LZ= MA compression=2E It doesn't make sense to compress that over
the wire= =2E

That said: XZ compression currently saves 27% (559M -> 405M)= =2E
Transparently serving pre-compressed ISOs with nginx (gzip level 9) would save about 25% (559M -> 415M), which is surprisingly
simi= lar=2E
