enable tcp/ip traffic compression

[krt47]

thankx to jaclaz we have some registry tweaks to compress tcp/ip for faster speed and enhancements.

In the Registry there is also:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Fastfat

and of course it is just a matter to add in it a key "superturbomode" giving it a value of 1 to have any file access/copy operation on FAT12,16 and 32 speed up by 127%.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Ntfs

a key named "ResublimatedThiotimoline" with value of "1" as this, whilst allowing to serve files before they are requested, thus with a very sensible speed enhancement on NTFS volumes , also writes files before they are created which results in filling volumes with gibberish files in a very short time.

You can however add that key to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdfs

as - being the filesystem RO - it won't create issues.

Thank you for using our search services.

here is a web site on wan traffic compression http://2020vp.com/wan-traffic-compression-in-an-all-ip-world/ this should explain things.

Dear Mr.krt47,

we took note of the site you mentioned.

Unfortunately it does not in any way represent a valid source, being it a single article, very vague, made mostly of "fluff" and never mentioning any Microsoft Operating System, let alone more specifically Windows 7 or it's Registry and/or tweaks for it.

Due to the time it took to ascertain that the resource you proposed provides not anything connected with the original question, nor provides any meaningful additional info to it, your request has been downgraded to #4874 in the queue.

Considering the upcoming holidays, an answer is expected no earlier than February 13, 2014.

Thank you again for using our search services.

Best regards,

jaclaz

P.S.: Should you be not current with the definition of the word "fluff", here is a dictionary entry for it:

meaning #3

also there is nothing now a registry tweak for traffic compressor on tcp/ip. i'v try microsoft website. all i see on there is servers registry tweaks.

Best I can tell, what that is describing is an app, or software "layer" that is installed at both ends of the transmission to compress/expand the "data", sort of like the way that encryption or file compression (.zip, .rar, .7z, etc) works. As such there is NO WAY any kind of "tweak" can accomplish that function, in any OS whatsoever. Nothing I saw from my quick look should have given you the idea that it is possible.

"find me tcp/ip traffic compression tweak?"

If sentence is read as "find me tcp/ip traffic compression tweak?" then, the

'compression of traffic' that is transferred via TCP/IP (such as http) can be

activated - such a thing exists. It's not usable if the webserver (you are

downloading a webpage from) disallows it. Apparently as at 2013, most

browsers & webservers are 'http compression' capable.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_compression

This website checks if your favorite webserver has compression enabled;

tcp/ip is @ this in the registry.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Tcpip\Parameters]

of course it is just matter of enabing it through the registry.

I did not say that tcp/ip traffic compression is not possible. Of course it is. I said that no registry tweak by itself can accomplish it. It depends on software at the web server and in the browser. I have yet to find any reference anywhere that any registry tweak can "enable" it, or turn it off for that matter. From buyerninety's link:

... HTTP compression which cannot realistically be turned off, as virtually all web servers rely upon it to improve data transmission speeds for users.

But then:

The web server is by no means obliged to use any compression method - this depends on the internal settings of the web server and also may depend on the internal architecture of the website in question.

In case of SDCH a dictionary negotiation is also required, which may involve additional steps, like downloading a proper dictionary from the external server.

And it also won't work:

... where anti-virus software interferes with connections to force them to be uncompressed, where proxies are used (with overcautious web browsers), where servers are misconfigured, and where browser bugs stop compression being used.

Certainly not, and noone accused you of having said that , however you are wrong anyway

Of the nice links provided by krt47, BOTH completely void of any relevance when it comes to Registry tweaking, only the second is about a software layer, the first being some specialized hardware :

http://www.f5.com/products/hardware/

We could make a quick reality check:

if *something* (*anything*) is available through a simple Registry tweak HOW EXACTLY can two companies make money sellimg (respectively) hardware or software that delivers that same *something*?

I confess I was lazy and only looked at the second link, not wanting to bother downloading a .pdf file, and assuming the two links were about similar topics. My fault. But I still stand by what I said in my last post:

I said that no registry tweak by itself can accomplish it. It depends on software at the web server and in the browser. I have yet to find any reference anywhere that any registry tweak can "enable" it, or turn it off for that matter.

and from what you have posted, I believe you agree.

Sure, and to be picky (as I actually am ) tcp/ip is a "generic" network data transmission protocol, whilst http is just one one of the application layer protocols supported by it:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_protocol

or, if you prefer, it is only a very small subset of possible tcp/ip "traffic".

The "fluffy" article initially mentioned is related to hardware compression:

Companies that offer WAN compression often add other capabilities to their products, including bandwidth management capabilities and quality of service (QoS) features. Note that no WAN compression standards exist to simplify interoperability. Consequently, equipment from the same WAN compression vendor must be used at each WAN endpoint. Interoperability among different vendor equipment in the near future is unlikely. Most of these vendors, including many of the start-up players, have patented technologies that they believe differentiates them from their competition.

and is essentially a collection of truisms, of course compressing data means that less packets are sent through the network to transmit the same amount of data, and this means that more data can pass through the same connection, same goes for optimizing protocols and employ effective caching measures.

In any case the article mentions explicitly:

Another technology employed for WAN compression is caching. This is different from web caching. Web caching captures pre-compressed static objects and delivers them to users from caching servers distributed throughout the Internet. Web caching solutions are effective on the Internet because it carries a tremendous amount of web traffic.

However, enterprise network traffic is quite different. Although web applications are present, they represent only a small fraction of all traffic. Other traffic is devoted to a wide range of applications, including services from SAP, PeopleSoft and Siebel; ERP and CRM; and hundreds of other applications. Traffic may result from file transfers, program downloads, the transmission of media objects, streaming media, and even VoIP.

how web applications (please read as http) are considered only a small fraction of the actual tcp/ip traffic.
