The CompressionLevel property lets you customize compression to meet your specific needs. A lower value causes the compressor to run more quickly, but the data transmitted is not tightly compressed and takes longer to transmit. A higher compression level value will cause more processing on the server running IIS, but will reduce data transfer times.
The actual amount of data compression depends on the type of data being compressed.
A value of 0 turns off all compression. The default value is 1. This uses the lowest amount of processor time while still providing some compression.
