gzipping is a much more effective method and easier - yields a much smaller size than stipping the white space and all.

When I tried a white space stripped file and compared the gzip of the original file to gzipped white space size, they were almost the same.

If the pages are fairly static - meaning changed every hour or so, use a pregzipped version that is updated when needed.
