Hello,
For me stripped mode + Batch or Async does a correct job and would be better if
we also stripped request content.
I don't share the thinking that Strip truncates datas, it does but not useful
data  during a load test.


Zipping has some drawbacks:
- It is very costly in terms of CPU on servers
- It will not make things better as we use RMI

But if you have a working patch that shows I'm wrong, I'll be more than happy
:-)
