GZipStream decompression performance is poor
问题 I have a .NET 2.0 WinForms app that connects to a backend WAS server. I am using GZipStream to decode data coming back from a HttpWebRequest call made to the server. The data returned is compressed CSV, which Apache is compressing. The entire server stack is Hibernate-->EJB-->Spring-->Apache. For small responses, the performance is fine (<50ms). When I get a response >150KB, it takes more than 60 seconds to decompress. The majority of the time seems to be spent in the GZipStream constructor.
