Re: [Zope] Apache 2 + Zope can't gzip HTTP response body?

Can I use HTTP "Content-Encoding: gzip" for Zope if I use Apache 2? (And should I use gzip content-encoding?)

The mod_gzip doesn't work with Apache 2, but instead it has mod_deflate. But mod_deflate can't chose which responses to gzip based on the MIME-type for responses that are coming through ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse. And with Zope I can't rely on extensions (like .html), just on the MIME-type. Do I think these well?

Zope can do "gzip" compression by itself. You can activate it via "RESPONSE.enableHTTPCompression(REQUEST)" This activates "gzip" compression for precisely this response. -- Dieter
