compression

I want to compress my files using GZIP. Can you share the web.config code for compressing files with GZIP? Is there anything more that I have to do after uploading my web.config file? Ryan GZip Compression can be enabled directly through IIS. First, open up IIS, go to the website you are hoping to tweak and hit the Compression page. If Gzip is not installed, you will see something like the following: “The dynamic content compression module is not installed.” We should fix this. So we go to the “Turn Windows features on or off” and select “Dynamic Content Compression” and click the OK button.

This question might be very basic Is there a way to reduce the frame size/rate of Lossy compressed (WMV, MPEG) format, to get a smaller video, of lesser size, with same format. Are there any open source or proprietary apis for this? Jason B ffmpeg provides this functionality. All you need to do is run someting like ffmpeg -i <inputfilename> -s 640x480 -b 512k -vcodec mpeg1video -acodec copy <outputfilename> For newer versions of ffmpeg you need to change -b to -b:v : ffmpeg -i <inputfilename> -s 640x480 -b:v 512k -vcodec mpeg1video -acodec copy <outputfilename> to convert the input video file

I have a webapp on a NGinx server. I set gzip on in the conf file and now I'm trying to see if it works. YSlow says it's not, but 5 out of 6 websites that do the test say it is. How can I get a definite answer on this and why is there a difference in the results? It looks like one possible answer is, unsurprisingly, curl : $ curl http://example.com/ --silent --write-out "%{size_download}\n" --output /dev/null 31032 $ curl http://example.com/ --silent -H "Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate" --write-out "%{size_download}\n" --output /dev/null 2553 In the second case the client tells the server that

I use pdftk to compress a pdf using the following command line pdftk file1.pdf output file2.pdf compress It works as the weight of my file decreased. Are there [options] to change the compression??? Or maybe other solutions to compress my file? It is heavy because some graphics have a lot of points . Is there a way to convert these graphs to jpg for instance and adapt the compression? nullglob I had the same problem and found two different solutions (see this thread for more details). Both reduced the size of my uncompressed PDF dramatically. Pixelated (lossy): convert input.pdf -compress Zip

General Use-Case Imagine a client that is uploading large amounts of JSON. The Content-Type should remain application/json because that describes the actual data. Accept-Encoding and Transfer-Encoding seem to be for telling the server how it should format the response. It appears that responses use the Content-Encoding header explicitly for this purpose, but it is not a valid request header. Is there something I am missing? Has anyone found an elegant solution? Specific Use-Case My use-case is that I have a mobile app that is generating large amounts of JSON (and some binary data in some cases

I have read about Spark 's support for gzip -kind input files here , and I wonder if the same support exists for different kind of compressed files, such as .zip files. So far I have tried computing a file compressed under a zip file, but Spark seems unable to read its contents successfully. I have taken a look to Hadoop 's newAPIHadoopFile and newAPIHadoopRDD , but so far I have not been able to get anything working. In addition, Spark supports creating a partition for every file under a specified folder, like in the example below: SparkConf SpkCnf = new SparkConf().setAppName("SparkApp")
