FYI, I tested this on 5.5.27 using the HTTP 1.1 connector and a 77K
javascript file and I got 77K uncompressed, and 26K compressed.

I have determined that any file larger than 48k is not getting compressed

BUG TITLE
Tomcat Compression limited to 48K
CONFIGURATION
Windows XP (SP3)
Apache Tomcat 6.0.18
Java 1.6.0_13-b03
SPECIAL TOMCAT SETTINGS
Set on the Connector:
compression="force"
compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml,text/plain,text/css,text/javascript
,
text/json,application/json"
noCompressionUserAgents="gozilla, traviata"
TEST CASE
1). Create a file exactly 48K in size somewhere in your tomcat structure
that is accessible to the outside.
2). Execute the following CURL command. (CURL required)
curl -s -o nul: -H "Pragma: no-cache" -H "Cache-Control: no-cache" -w "
Bytes Uncompressed ... %{size_download}\n" <INSERT URL TO FILE HERE>
3). Make a note of the uncompressed file size.
4). Execute the following CURL command.
curl -s -o nul: -H "Pragma: no-cache" -H "Cache-Control: no-cache" -w "
Bytes Uncompressed ... %{size_download}\n" --compressed <INSERT URL TO FILE
HERE>
5). Make a note of the compressed file size.
6). Add exactly one byte the file from step #1.
7). Wait 10 seconds or so to allow your tomcat install time to notice the
changed file.
8). Execute the following CURL command. (CURL required)
curl -s -o nul: -H "Pragma: no-cache" -H "Cache-Control: no-cache" -w "
Bytes Uncompressed ... %%{size_download}\n" <INSERT URL TO FILE HERE>
9). Make a note of the uncompressed file size.
10). Execute the following CURL command.
curl -s -o nul: -H "Pragma: no-cache" -H "Cache-Control: no-cache" -w "
Bytes Uncompressed ... %%{size_download}\n" --compressed <INSERT URL TO FILE
HERE>
11). Make a note of the compressed file size.
OBSERVATION
The uncompressed and compressed numbers from steps 3 and 5 are different, as
expected. The uncompressed and compressed numbers from steps 7 and 9 are
the same. This indicates that for any file in excess of 49152 bytes
(exactly 48k), compression is not being used.
DESIRED RESULTS
Compression should be used regardless of file size.
TEST SCRIPT
I have included a sample Batch Script which will perform this test case.
The script will run on Windowx XP and requires CURL and PING installed and
configured into the PATH.
@ECHO off
