In response to Tom, setting "Allow listing of global file address book" to
false is not an option I am permitted to use by our management unless there
is a way to only list a subset of the Global Address Book (commonly emailed
addresses) while still being able to search the rest of it (which would
contain lesser used email addresses).
So far I have had no luck improving the time it takes the Global Address
Book to load across slow links using any of the following compression
methods:
1. In Apache 2.2.11's httpd.conf file: (apachectl -t -D DUMP_MODULES #
deflate_module (static) is present)
LoadModule deflate_module /usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_deflate.so
<Directory /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/webmail>
Options -Indexes
AllowOverride none
DirectoryIndex index.php
Order allow,deny
allow from all
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ \ no-gzip
dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI
\.(?:exe|t?gz|zip|bz2|sit|rar)$ \no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.pdf$ no-gzip dont-var
</Directory>
2. In PHP's php.ini file:
zlib.output_compression = On
3. In a .htaccess file within the global address book directory:
php_flag zlib.output_compression on
It looks like the only other options for me to try is either the SM gzip
plugin or going to a couple of PHP scripting classes and trying to make it
paginated using the abook_group_pagination plugin as a reference.
If anyone has any other suggestions or knows how to hack out the latter, I
would greatly appreciate it since the is the very last thing holding me
back from being able to put it in production.
Thanks much,
Derek
