Compressed AJAX Data

String Extension Method Zip:

{
var bytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(str);
using (var memorystreaminput = new MemoryStream(bytes))
using (var memorystreamoutput = new MemoryStream())
{
using (var gs = new GZipStream(memorystreamoutput, CompressionMode.Compress))
{
memorystreaminput.CopyTo(gs);
}
return memorystreamoutput.ToArray();

Repository Save:
var showsIQueryable = GetShowsIQueryable();
var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer { MaxJsonLength = Int32.MaxValue };
var data = serializer.Serialize(showsIQueryable);

var compressedDataBlob = data.Zip();

//stores compressedDataBlob

Controller ActionResult Get:
var showsJsonText = _showService.CommandRepo.GetShowsCache();
Response.Headers.Remove("Content-Encoding");
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Encoding", "gzip");

return new FileContentResult(showsJsonText, "application/javascript");

dataType: 'json',

3 Ways to Load Html with HtmlAgilityPack

Method 1:
var web = new HtmlWeb();
var doc = web.Load(sourceUrl);

Method 2:
var uri = new Uri(sourceUrl);
var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(uri);
request.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip | DecompressionMethods.Deflate;
var response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();

var doc = new HtmlDocument();
var stream = response.GetResponseStream();
doc.Load(stream, Encoding.UTF8);

Method 3:
using (var wc = new WebClient()){
html = wc.DownloadString(sourceUrl);
}
var doc = new HtmlDocument();
doc.LoadHtml(html);
