Any plan to gzip placefiles? Those could compress really well and some are quite large for a slow mobile connection.

Ryan Hickman The application would need to support gzipped feeds. I am not aware of any which do.
It is more our goal to make the size of these placefiles manageable in their raw form. Threshold, distance from radar site and other factors can be used to filter the unnecessary data. All of these techniques are being employed.
If you have a problem with a specific feed's size, please feel free to let us know. We can certainly look into compressing it more to ensure a quick load while on mobile connections.
