ob_start() slows the script

Question

I am using ob_start('ob_gzhandler') for compressing my script.But the script takes too much time for execution. I added ob_end_flush() method in the callback function of register_shutdown_function() because i can't add ob_end_flush() directly in the code.Is this the problem for the delay? Please give me suggestions to speed up my script.Thank you

How do you compare the delay? Did you use a profiler (xdebug, xhprof, ...)? — johannes, Apr 27 '11 at 09:24

Suggestions? Well... Don't use ob_gzhandler, use front-end abilities to zip output - apache, nginx can do this.
