Thanks, this is the conclusion I came to also. Also I agree about
Pingdom probably just not making it clear that the response was all binary.

I am hopefully going to solve it by putting the compression method
(based on Accept-Encoding) in the cache key. Not sure if the 304 issue
will come back but it's a step in the right direction at least.

Thanks,
Jon
