Hi there,
I'm back with this task (again). Jon: you are far more advanced than I am on understanding squid. I can start helping content compression writing GzipCoder, if you want to. (Already discussed) About TE/Transfer-Encoding vs Accept-Encoding/Content-Encoding: Content-Encoding implementation (even if it bends standards) seems to be the reasonable choice, since TE/Transfer-Encoding is not available on most common browsers. If implemented as Content-Encoding the following headers should be altered before encoding: Content-Length: deleted (could be updated to actual gzipped content length, but it is too much trouble i guess). ETag: modified (appending "CEgz", for instance?) Vary: append Accept-Encoding (if not already there) Connection: if client is 1.1, could be set to keep-alive, but Transfer-Encoding chunked should be added/checked. Hope this provides some light about possible encoding options.
