We had a weird issue of Akamai not caching static content like JS, CSS etc. On debugging, they reported that we are sending "Vary:Accept Encoding" is causing issue. But I think that mod_deflate automatically sends that (for proxies)
However, I have explicitly unset that header so that Akamai can cache. Are there any downsides of this ? Also do I need to turn off the compression also in case the same compressed file is not returned by HTTPD for the same uncompressed file. Thanks, Akash
