Enable both Gzip and Brotli compression.

Brotli compression has better performance when dealing HTML, CSS and JS files. you can enable it in the Startup.cs file.

// response compression
services.AddResponseCompression(options =>
{
    options.Providers.Add<BrotliCompressionProvider>();
    options.Providers.Add<GzipCompressionProvider>();
    // support custom mimetypes
    options.MimeTypes =
        ResponseCompressionDefaults.MimeTypes.Concat(
            new[] { "image/svg+xml" });
});

services.Configure<BrotliCompressionProviderOptions>(options =>
{
    options.Level = (CompressionLevel)4; // 4 or 5 is OK
});

Default Response Compression Mime Types

public static readonly IEnumerable<string> MimeTypes = new[]
{
	// General
	"text/plain",
	// Static files
	"text/css",
	"application/javascript",
	"text/javascript",
	// MVC
	"text/html",
	"application/xml",
	"text/xml",
	"application/json",
	"text/json",
	// WebAssembly
	"application/wasm",
};

ResponseCompressionDefaults

Use Response Compression

app.UseResponseCompression() in the Configure method needs to be before app.UseStaticFiles() as otherwise headers have already been sent.

app.UseResponseCompression();
