 The following arguments are supported:
 
 * `minimum_size` - Do not GZip responses that are smaller than this minimum size in bytes. Defaults to `500`.
+* `compresslevel` - Used during GZip compression. It is an integer ranging from 1 to 9. Defaults to `9`. Lower value results in faster compression but larger file sizes, while higher value results in slower compression but smaller file sizes.
