[mapserver-users] optimize raster for mapserver - gdal geoTIFF source

[John Callahan]

1) I use average as well.  No problems or complaints so far.

2) I use uncompressed TIFs when I can and not worry about file sizes unless
necessary.   If compression is necessary, I use LZW first, then JPEG (75 -
90) if more compression is needed.  They all work fine.

3) Also have never heard of those processing directives.
