Neil Craig<p>Our stack is: `Fastly -&gt; GTM (BBC CDN) -&gt; Belfrage (BBC routing) -&gt; origins` for most of our modern web pages.<br>Currently, only Fastly supports Brotli, the others do gzip, deflate &amp; no compression.<br>Fastly strips `gzip,deflate` from the `accept-encoding` header sent to origin so our layers all return uncompressed content which means they're using more egress bandwidth. It's not a huge problem for us but something I thought might be useful for others to know.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WebDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WebDev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Brotli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Brotli</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CDN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CDN</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Compression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Compression</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BBC</span></a></p>
Neil Craig<p>A little update on our enabling of Brotli for www.bbc.co.uk, www.bbc.com etc.<br>We're seeing compression improvements of roughly 15-40% over gzip. 15% is for HTML only, 40% is the overall. The caveat is that some clients which don't support Brotli request unusual content so this may be skewed to some degree.<br>I'll cover an issue which has cropped up in the next post.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WebDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WebDev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Brotli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Brotli</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CDN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CDN</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Compression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Compression</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BBC</span></a></p>
Neil Craig<p>I enabled Brotli compression on the CDN which serves the main BBC websites (www.bbc.co.uk. www.bbc.com etc.) outside the UK this morning.<br>Over ~4 hours, we're seeing a mean of ~20% better compression (smaller responses) via Brotli &amp; ~95% of responses being Brotli now.<br>I've not had time to look in detail at performance but there doesn't look to be a significant change (LMK if you see diferent!).<br>(the spikes are breaking news events linking to a large "live" pages)<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Brotli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Brotli</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WebDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WebDev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BBC</span></a></p>
Neil Craig<p>Somehow, we never got round to enabling Brotli compression on www.bbc.co.uk &amp; www.bbc.com so I am just in the final throws of deploying that.<br>So far in ~1 hour on our staging site, I'm seeing ~24% smaller files under Brotli (vs. gzip). 🤞this (or better) also happens on live which'll be tomorrow.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WebDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WebDev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Compression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Compression</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Brotli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Brotli</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GZip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GZip</span></a></p>
