[users@httpd] Gzip different for different user agents

[Ayal Lior <Ay...@dialogic.com>]

Hi,

By looking at packet traces from mobile operators it seems that Apache server returns a slightly different Gzip object for different UAs for the same original file.
When unzipping them, the same file is obtained.
Anyone have any idea why and what is the algorithm?

Thanks,
Ayal

That'll be the mobile operators' proxies compressing contents.

If you serve contents ready-compressed from an origin
server, they probably won't do that.
