Enable text compression

Warning

Compress text-based responses with gzip or Brotli to reduce transfer size significantly.

uses-text-compression

occurrences

Text-based resources (HTML, CSS, JS, JSON) compress 60-80% with gzip and even better with Brotli. Without compression every byte travels over the wire as-is, slowing FCP and LCP directly.

Typical savings: 60-80% transfer size on JS/CSS, 150-400ms LCP improvement

Lighthouse: Enable text compression web.dev: Minify and compress network payloads

Recommended

# nginx — enable gzip + Brotli
gzip on;
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/javascript application/json;
gzip_min_length 1024;

# Brotli (ngx_brotli module)
brotli on;
brotli_types text/plain text/css application/javascript;

Avoid

# No gzip / Brotli block in nginx.conf
# Responses delivered uncompressed — 3-5x larger than necessary
