Gzip plugin for PicoCMS
Use this plugin to enable gzip compression on your Pico responses. Prior to compressing the output, the browsers Accept-Encoding request header field is checked. In case gzip compression is supported and not purposely disabled via the Gzip page meta field, compression will be applied to the requested page.
The php zlib is required to run this plugin, which should be enabled by default in most php installations. In case zlib is not installed, PicoGzip will throw a RuntimeException. So it is safe to just give it a try.
Copy PicoGzip.php to the plugins directory of your Pico installation and enable the plugin in your config/config.php file:
[...]
// Enable gzip compression plugin
$config['PicoGzip.enabled'] = true;
[...]By default, all pages will be compressed before they are sent back to the user. Use the Gzip: false header in any of your pages to disable compression.

---You might want to adjust the compression level passed into gzencode. To do so, set the gzip_compression_level parameter in your Pico config/config.php file:
[...]
// Gzip compression level, default to the highest (=9) if omitted
$config['gzip_compression_level'] = 5;
