To add to Joshua's advice about logging, remember that apache will only
gzip the data if the client asks for it. Before the server will zip the
response, the client has to send a request-header like;
Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate
Most recent browsers do this by default but if you are using an ancient
browser, or wget or even telnet to hit the server, you won't get
compression unless you ask for it...
If you really want to be sure, use FireFox with the LiveHTTPHeaders
extension. Then you can see exactly what each party is saying to the
other.
