When small is better: Brotli compression in a real case

Claims concrete results: using Brotli compression on deployed assets yields files about 30% smaller than gzip, CDN egress cost falls roughly 50%, and page load times improve ~15%. Builds come from server tooling or containerized pipelines — assets produced with docker-built assets or native server support (Apache, nginx, Amazon, Google Cloud) compress better than the JavaScript library. Browser fallback serves gzip or uncompressed when unsupported; compatibility sits near 70%.
