Hi all,

I would like to find out what I can do to speed up my website (from a bandwidth-used point of view) - I'm not really concerned about the page-generation time.
I heard things about GZIP compression and the likes, but I'm not sure exactly how it works.

With bluehost, you cannot add php commands in .htaccess
This has to be done in the php.ini for that folder.

I tried adding 

output_handler          = ob_gzhandler;

into the php.ini file, but this does not really seem to work as expected.

Drupal.org seems to be very fast from one page to the next on my link, but my site (http://www.dieinter.net) is extremely slow. Is my CSS too bloated at a combined size of 27Kb?

Any tips, or common best practices would be appreciated.
