[users@httpd] limit lower size for mod_deflate
Hi,
I've searched the archives and I can see that this was a request a few
years ago, is there way of achieving this on 2.2?
I'm using deflate to compress the data on ActiveSync connections, most
of the time on the small packets there is negative compression so I want
to avoid compressing these, however there are gains on the larger
packets.
I don't think there is a way of setting an environment variable based on
the content-length is there?

You didn't misread, mod_gzip is for 1.3. Furthermore, mod_gzip buffers
the response before compressing (iirc), and that directive refers to
file size, not chunk size.
Cheers

Thanks for that, I thought mod_gzip was discontinued since 1.3, I'd
obviously misread that, I'll give it a try.
Thanks

Hi Brendata,
Can you try using mod_gzip. This will allow you to use the below
mentioned directive
mod_gzip_minimum_file_size 512
Please note that the size is in bytes.
Regards,
Sushant Gulati

2.3/2.4 has ap_expr which *could* be used for this purpose
FilterDeclare gzip CONTENT_SET
FilterProvider gzip inflate "%{CONTENT_LENGTH} <= 1024"
FilterChain gzip
However there *is* *no* such variable as CONTENT_LENGTH..
