My site www.dpgr.gr is not gziped as I just noticed:
http://leknor.com/code/gziped.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dpgr.gr%2Fforum
(I was not aware of this link)
Actually it is gzipped -
http://leknor.com/code/gziped.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dpgr.gr%2Fforum%2F - you need the trailing / or you just get the apache redirect to the proper location

1) How do I gzip my forum?
Its the enabled output compression in installed mods settings and options

2) How much trafffic (percentage) will I earn?
Disable the option, and have a look at the link I posted - the one including the trailing slash and it will give the figures, not sure what level of compression YSE uses.

3) Is there any risk or any loss from this action of gzip? Maybe it becomes slower?
Server load may marginally increase due having to compress the pages, but the effect will be practically unnoticable, the benefit is a
much smaller download. Think I noticed about a 10x reduction in bandwidth with it enabled, which also means that pages appear quicker for most users.
