Hi , Maybe two ways you can try : 1. In your code Here is a simple example public class GZipOrDeflateAttribute:ActionFilterAttribute { public override void OnActionExecuting (ActionExecutingContext filterContext) { string acceptencoding = filterContext.HttpContext. equest.Headers[ "Accept-Encoding" ]; if (! string .IsNullOrEmpty(acceptencoding)) { acceptencoding = acceptencoding.ToLower(); var response = filterContext.HttpContext.Response; if (acceptencoding.Contains( "gzip" )) { response.AppendHeader( "Content-Encoding" , "gzip" ); response.Filter = new GZipStream(response.Filter, CompressionMode.Compress); } else if (acceptencoding.Contains( "deflate" )) { response.AppendHeader( "Content-Encoding" , "deflate" ); response.Filter = new DeflateStream(response.Filter, CompressionMode.Compress); } } } } And the usage : [GZipOrDeflate] public ActionResult Index() { using (NorthwindEntities db = new NorthwindEntities()) { return View(db.Customers.ToList()); } } 2. Enable Compression in IIS In Features View, double-click Compression. Then you will enter the Compression page In Compression page , you can enable the compression.
