Results of experimenting with Brotli for dynamic web content

This post introduces Brotli as a potential replacement for gzip, detailing its compression algorithms (LZ77 and Huffman coding) and comparing its performance characteristics to gzip. It highlights Brotli's larger sliding window, smaller minimal match length, and larger maximal match length compared to gzip, as well as its static dictionary feature. The post includes experimental results showing Brotli achieving better compression ratios than gzip at comparable or slightly higher CPU costs.
