Laszlo, can you reference any other open source projects that have similar solutions to this issue? Anything I’ve read states dynamic compression in tomcat/httpd/nginx does not add significant CPU overhead.

Changes ------- spaces Repository: cloudstack-git Description ------- CloudStack at first use downloads some 3.5 MB of css and javascript to the client. With a weak internet connection, this might take a long time. With gzip compression content can be compressed to 850 KB. This version of the patch uses a custom plugin to compress static resources, so that no dynamic compression is needed at runtime. When the static resource servlet notices that there is gzipped version of the resource and the client accepts gzipped content, then it is going to send the gziped version, while still respects http caching.
