Compressing resources using the gzip or deflate functions reduces the amount of data transferred over the network.
I installed django_compressor battery but it didn't help. The compression itself works, but the check does not pass, it gives out cached links of something like this.
mydomen.ru/static/cache/js/a37663a50ea3.js will reduce its size by 59.3 KB (64%).
In general, I'm trying to compress css and js, but in fact it doesn't work.
I understand that this is not necessary, but the client asked me to do it.

Turn on compression.

This is a problem and the task is not Django, but the web server, it turns on elementarily, for example like this (there are a million more examples in the search engine).

mydomen.ru/static/cache/js/a37663a50ea3.js will reduce its size by 59.3 KB (64%).

Usually at the bottom you are offered to download already compressed files, download them and replace yours with compressed ones, without forgetting to make a backup copy, just in case.

For example: Washingtonpost .
He doesn't have much either. But the project is really big.
If the percentage is more than 60-70, this is already excellent. And it matters how many elements are on the page.
