 * Although I see the message in the source code <!– Compression = gzip –>,
    Google
   PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix say that gzip compression is not enabled.
 * I tried this with a fresh and updated WP install on a HostGator shared server.
   When I try W3 Total Cache, gzip compression works.
 * Does anyone have any insight on how to make gzip compression work on WP Super
   Cache?
