I would like to report a bug in openSSL version 0.9.7.
I cannot get on-the-fly compression to work using
SSL_COMP_add_compression_method. The performance
of the ssltest program is the same with or without
the -zlib command line option. My own program behaves
in a similar way. I have added trace to the ZLIB compress
function and the trace does not come out. By hacking the
code of s3_{clnt,srv} to force it into thinking that
compression is being used the trace statements DO get
executed, but just by calling SSL_COMP_add_compression_method
they do not.

I understand that as of 0.9.7 SSL_COMP_add_compression_method
is all that is needed (i.e no explicit negotiation is
needed unlike 0.9.6) but I do not think it is working
properly.

Regards,

Andrew Marlow.
