Brotli compression

Brotliis a general-purpose lossless compression algorithm. It compresses data using a combination of a modern variant of theLempel-Ziv codingLZ77 algorithm,Huffman coding,and second-order context modeling, providing a compression ratio comparable to the best currently available general-purpose compression methods.

Brotli provides better compression ratios thangzip,and speeds that are comparable todeflate. However brotli compression is slower than Gzip compression, so gzip may be a better option when compressingnon-cacheablecontent.

Brotli is compatible with most modern browsers, but you may want to consider a fallback.
