I am sorry if I am not an admin, but maybe I can help a small amount in regards to your questions. See below for the answers/opinions:

1. Is GZIP used with vBulletin?
Yes, but you have to have GZIP installed on your server, within the Admin CP you may choose whether to turn it on or off, as well as what level to set it on (1-9 I think).

2. Which version of RH Linux is better?
This is my own personal thing, but I like to have the most up to date software (unless it is beta) on my computer/server (either one) so I would have to go with Red Hat 7.1

As far as bandiwidth goes, I can not speak for this site because I do not know for sure and do not own it, but bandiwidth would really depend on if you plan to allow downloads (attachments), how many visitors you get, ect.

Most sites that run vBulletin do not use too much bandwidth unless they are highly visited sites such as vBulletin.org (here), vBulletin.com, SitePoint.com, ect.

You would be better off asking FireFly or one of the admins as far and the use of bandwidth here or at vb.com. I would say this forum would use a little more seeing as it has all the hacks and it is more graphically intense.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
