compress html if desired #103

Closed sarbbottam closed 9 years ago

sarbbottam commented 9 years ago

If compress is passed as true at the time of express-handlebars instantiation, engine would return compressed markup

var exphbs = require('express-handlebars');
...
app.engine('html', exphbs({
    handlebars: handlebars,
    compress: true
}));

@sarbbottam what sort of savings does this provide over gzip on a real world test page with compress set to true over gzip of that same page without this option set?

I'm closing this because I don't believe it will have any meaningful impact on a page that's served with gzip at the HTTP level.
