Regarding the latter, the Tomcat docs say: > "Disables compression if set to true and OpenSSL supports disabling > compression.". Is that referring to a different type of compression? Yes. The Tomcat connector implements compression. The SSL/TLS protocol has a separate compression implementation. I'd guess (no testing to back this up) that you'd be better off with using the connector compression as you can tailor that to the correct mime-types. I'd also guess that if you have one, enabling the other doesn't buy you much.
