SlipStream uses adaptive data compression, combined with caching and network optimization, to streamline text, graphics, Flash and Web-based emails, including attachments. SlipStream technology features industry-leading loss and lossless compression algorithms, achieving compression of HTML and XML of up to 50 times.
Direct Internet 3 speed vs. standard dial-up11/15/2010Iridium Proprietary and Confidential4AppLabs Technologies, an independant lab, compared the Web browsing acceleration performance of SlipStream over dial up Internet access to that of standard Web browsing over non-accelerated dial up Internet access. The results indicate that for dial up Internet access significantly improved the time to deliver Web pages over the Internet when compared to non-accelerated browsing:Average acceleration gain of 5.45x (faster)On Iridium, this increases the effective data speeds from 2.4kbps to 13kbps
