Why is there gzipping in Scaffold?

[balupton]

Shouldn't Scaffold just generate a .css file, output it to a particular tmp/cache folder, redirect the header to that location - then let the server handle gzipping and everything via .htaccess if necessary?

Or is this what it does? :-)

Yep this is what it does. But for servers that don't have the ability to gzip or if you can't use a htaccess file for some reason, it can compress it using php. It's a bit slower, but it works just as well.

Okay cool. No worries then!
