  • Mvied, Thank you very much for this — a life saver indeed!! I have a concern about performance though. I’m on a shared hosting account and would like to remain within the low CPU quota they give me. So, does the plugin buffer all pageviews or only those that begin with https? Thanks, -MK

    This plugin will enable output buffering on all pages, however it will only actually process the output buffer on HTTPS pages.

    If you’re not using content compression, output buffering is very unlikely to affect the speed of your web server by any great amount – if anything, it should help it serve pages /faster/ because of the optimized data sending. Content compression does take up a little CPU time on both the server and on clients visiting your site, but it’s pretty small. On the up-side, content compression should decrease the amount of bandwidth you use by 40-60%, which means your server will spend less time sending data across the network.
