[stunnel-users] zlib compression

Hello.

I have installed stunnel 4.09 both as client (on my computer) and as server (on server). Both has zlib compression enabled and I can see that zlib initializes properly in the logs (it says "Compression enabled using zlib method"). But when I send any data over that tunnel I can't see any signs of compression - amount of traffic is almost the same as over plain connection.

Am I doing something wrong? Or I'm misunderstanding the purpose of this compression ability? And if the traffic indeed must be reduced - why I can't see that and how can I make it work properly?

Thank you for your answers.

Best Regards, Oleg Ivanov.
