AOL Graphic Compression
When the AOL caching system detects that an object is an image, it sends the image through a compression manager on the AOL system network before caching it. Compression makes images smaller for faster retrieval from the cache to members. Members can individually disable AOL graphics compression, but most choose to allow compression because it speeds up web page delivery.


Determining Compressibility

In order for an image to be compressed, it must have the following characteristics:

  • The user must have compression turned on.
  • The object must be in the BMP, GIF, JPEG, or Progressive JPEG format.
  • The object size must be between 1KB and 8 MB.
