Proxy Bandwidth Minimize Code?

I did a quick search on DP and couldnt find what i was looking for...

Ive seen a few people who own proxies say they have put a bandwidth minimizer code on their proxy to reduce bandwidth, where would I get that code? And how does it really minimize the bandwidth and work?

 

pretty much it just doesn't allow hotlinking, which PHProxy can block now.

 

Also modify the following $_config array in index.php as,

$_config            = array
                    (
                        'url_var_name'             => 'q',
                        'flags_var_name'           => 'hl',
                        'get_form_name'            => '____pgfa',
                        'basic_auth_var_name'      => '____pbavn',
                        'max_file_size'            => 1000,
                        'allow_hotlinking'         => 0,
                        'upon_hotlink'             => 1,
                        'compress_output'          => 1
                    );

PHP:

 

hi
am no GURU in this,but with my limited knowledge i know this.
i haven't come across any code which can limit band width.but PHP proxies use high band width and low system resources and CGI proxies does the opposite.
so one way to reduce band width is using CGI.but they use lot of system resources.
another way is to ban the ip's which you think are using up the bandwidth.for this you have to use the .htaccess file.
i hope this is informative.

 

I need hotlinking allowed though, becuase Im #1 on many topsites, and if I dont allow hotlinking, then i loose traffic..

 

well then don't complain about bandwidth

 

Then limit this field

'max_file_size' => 1000,
