GZIP: Tapestry or Apache
Out of sheer interest: Assuming Apache is used in front of Tapestry, which of
the two would be the best place to GZIP resources? Why?
PS: Considering speed, CPU/memory usage & compatibility - not considering:
setup & maintenance
Cheers,
Stephanos

Because Tapestry is one of the few frameworks that gzip-encode on the
fly, we use Apache and mod_deflate to handle it.
There are some clients out there that really don't like gzip encoding
even if they say they do - and Apache gives us the flexibility to turn
it on/off for those specific clients on the fly.
CPU/memory usage is not typically a factor here.

Apache has a lot of module that let you achieve this quite easly...

Provisio: If you have Apache running on a separate machine, not just a
separate process, it may be more effective to let it GZIP the content
since it will not have as much else to do.
As with all performance questions, the answer is to test and compare.

As far as I know, Tapestry.
This is to leverage the fact that for assets, Tapestry will cache the
GZIPed assets, meaning that in the long run, much lower server load.
Is anyone aware (translation: I'm too lazy to check) if Apache can
cache the GZIPed stream as well?
