The tradeoff between client CPU time and upload speed is interesting. If they need to be able to output compressed text at 100mbps, that gives a budget of ~100ns/byte, or pretty much what they would have been spending with zlib in the first place. But on my fiber connection I only have a budget of 10ns/byte. Does that mean you'd use the equivalent of `brotli -q 1` for me? If so, doesn't the march of progress continually erode the advantages of compression in this use case? |
