A question was asked earlier on enabling gzip with web2py and Massimo answered that it's handled by the webserver. https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/web2py/LcfRSGN-Tbo
Lighttpd handles gzip compression but in their documentation about compression<http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/1/wiki/Docs_ModCompress#Django>, for dynamic content, the framework needs to provide some assistance if not handle it outright. I've enabled compression in my lighttp server, but web2py's output is not being compressed. Any ideas? --
