anyone know how to get the actual size of a file download request in chrome over the wire? in other words. i want to see how many MB a file takes to download (a pdf) while its gzipped.

thought that was just the final size on disk. ill try it out

i thought they were the same, if not maybe wireshark has something that could help

If you mean that you have an uncompressed file, say 5MB, and you download it and it gets gzipped on-the-fly while it's being downloaded (i.e. HTTP GET request with `Accept-Encoding: gzip`) then I don't think there's any way to find out how many gzipped bytes it has (unless you write your own function that counts).
