SmartCache is a js and css gzip & cache script.
It mantains an updated cache of every js and css file on your site and serves it to browsers supporting http compression.
SmartCache generates Expire Headers too!
SmartCache is a stripped down and polished revision of JSmart, from Ali Farhadi. Kudos to him for developing this script at first.
Note: I'm running Drupal 6, but the module works without issues on 5 (thanks to pedropablo for testing this!). Should work for v4 too.
In fact, it should be totally indipendent from the installed application!
Why use SmartCache versus mod_gzip?
First and foremost: not every server supports mod_gzip. If that is the case, SmartCache is for you.
Even if you have access to mod_gzip, if you cannot configure his caching funcionality or think it's too limited, you could find SmartCache a useful little tool. Or at least, I hope so ;).
