<IfModule mod_deflate.c> AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/javascript AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/javascript AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/x-component AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/richtext AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE image/svg+xml AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/plain AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xsd AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xsl AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE image/x-icon AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/json </IfModule>
