SQUEEZZIT (increases page download speed)

Dramaticaly increases webpage download speed (while reducing used bandwidth) by minifying, compressing and caching JavaScript files and CSS style sheets. Optimized files are cached on server in a compressed format (gzip) for even faster performance! Additionally, smart caching method is employed to eliminate unneccessary download of files if identical file exist in the cache of user's browser.

This plugin will work only on Apache servers and should be used only if you have no other way (NGINX) to minify and compress JavaScript and CSS files. This plugin requires you to manually modify your .htaccess file (during installation).

Detailed instructions on how to modify .htaccess file are included. This plugin has functions which check whether installation was successful. Overall, the installation process is quite easy and fast.

What's MINIFICATION?
Minification (very often just minify, and sometimes also minimization), is the process of removing all unnecessary characters from source code, without changing its functionality. These unnecessary characters usually include white space characters, new line characters, comments and sometimes block delimiters; which are used to add readability to the code, but are not required for it to execute.

TYPICAL PERFORMANCE EXAMPLES*
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
before optimization   minified   minified+compressed       reduction
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
JavaScript 11.6kB       7.5kB          2.5kB             smaller by 79%
CSS        21.4kB      17.9kB          3.8kB             smaller by 83%
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
*) Actual size reduction will vary from file to file.
