Chris Nauroth commented on YARN-1134: ------------------------------------- Is the intent to serve actual compressed files (i.e. it has a .gz extension), or is the intent to layer compression over the HTTP transfer (i.e. the Transfer-Encoding: gzip HTTP header). The original comment about how "it will take a long time to download" makes me think the latter is appropriate. > Add support for zipping/unzipping logs while in transit for the NM logs > web-service > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-1134 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1134 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli > > As [~zjshen] pointed out at > [YARN-649|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-649?focusedCommentId=13698415&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13698415], > {quote} > For the long running applications, they may have a big log file, such that it > will take a long time to download the log file via the RESTful API. > Consequently, HTTP connection may timeout before downloading before > downloading a complete log file.
