No because it depends on existence of gzcompress. So if ob_gzhandler 
does not work, class.gzip_encode will trigger error too.

This is good if page does not have *_INT objects. Otherwise it is extra 
work for decoding, inserting *_INT and then encoding. Complicates 
caching a bit but idea is good, I need to think about it...
