A slight correction: PickleRPC.py and PickleRPCServlet.py do currently handle gzip compression. Both request and response can be gzip-compressed. I implemented that because I'm making use of large PickleRPC requests over a modem connection, and the compression helps greatly.
If you want to try to implement gzip compression for regular servlets, looking at the code in PickleRPCServlet.py should help point you in the right direction. But I would probably take Ian's advice and try to use mod_gzip. If anyone has successfully gotten mod_gzip to work with mod_webkit, that would be a great thing to write up and put into the Webware Wiki. - Geoff > -----Original Message----- > From: Ian Bicking [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, January 07, 2003 5:37 PM > To: Jaroslaw Zabiello > Cc: Webware discuss > Subject: Re: [Webware-discuss] HTTP compression > > > On Tue, 2003-01-07 at 15:43, Jarosław Zabiełło wrote: > > I would like to change my code from PHP/Smarty to > Python/Cheetah but I > > need some features I cannot find in Webware.
