Gzip compression and caching?

Hi,

I saw the Tomcat can use Gzip compression, though I am curious to know  
whether there is any built in caching mechanism to cache static  
content that has been Gzipped, to reduce the server load?

No, you'd have to use Apache/mod_proxy in front of Tomcat or Squid to do that.
