    hi, i have couple of sites with heavy php - mysql usage.

    what were some of the things you did, that we can learn from, to reduce bandwith ?

    thanks in advance

    do you need to include ob_gzhandler in your scripts? i thought mod_zlib did the compression already ... i guess i should do some more reading ...

    well do you see and change in badwith usage ?
