So it sounds like we would only need to enable IRule compression if we are trying to do complex logic compression, but if we are just compressing by the content types of static files we should just do it using HTTP Profiles at the Virtual Server Level.
Exactly.
"If the pool members use compression, you could prevent this by setting the Request Header To Erase to 'Accept-Encoding'"
You can set the HTTP profile to remove the Accept-Encoding header from HTTP requests sent to the pool. This would indicate to the server that the client does not support compression of response payloads.
