Description
This is a follow up of https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/issues/2358
Original Issue was closed without any option to answer for me.
@SuperQ
You write math is incorrect. Can you please give more details.
GZipped result with comments is 10837 Bytes.
Removing lines with '# HELP' and then gzipping gives 6906 Bytes. This is ~0,63, so about 40 % of bandwith can be saved. Where is my mistake?
