Rob Vesse commented on JENA-209:
--------------------------------
Yes I would like to have it on by default.
My concern is that for a reasonable proportion of users they may only ever use
Fuseki for local prototyping and their browser is almost certainly going to
include an Accept-Encoding header by default so in-browser performance with
both the client and server on the same machine will be negatively impacted
> Add GZip compression support to Fuseki
> --------------------------------------

> Key: JENA-209
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-209
> Project: Jena
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Fuseki
> Affects Versions: Fuseki 0.2.1
> Reporter: Rob Vesse
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: compression, fuseki, gzip
> Fix For: Fuseki 0.2.1
>
> Attachments: FusekiGZipSupport.patch
>
>
> The attached patch for Fuseki gives the user the ability to enable gzip
> compression either by using a --gzip option at the command line or by calling
> ARQ.set(Fuseki.FusekiEnableGZipCompression, true) from code
> GZip compression is enabled by adding the GzipFilter to relevant servlets,
> this filter comes from the jetty-servlets package which is licensed under the
> same terms as the existing Jetty dependencies used so I assume licensing is
> not an issue. When enabled GZip compression only applies when the client
> sends an Accept-Encoding: gzip header and certain other conditions are met.
> Currently this feature is disabled by default as most browsers will send this
> header and when both the client and server are on the local machine
> performance can actually be worsened. When the client and server are on
> different networks a significant speed up (2-5x times depending on result
> format) has been seen.
