I believe this would be a configuration option in Apache to gzip responses.

I want to implement a web service which will forward large xml strings which it receives via backend services. I have a few points where I want to ask if there is a standard solution. - Does Axis offer some standard mechanism to compress the contents which it delivers back? The packed size of the xml might be around 5mb which should be ok to return. - Is there a way to make Axis not (de)serializing the whole xml? AXIOM is going in that direction that it parses on demand, so I might save memory if I just take the OMElement I get via the backend services and return it with my service. What do you think? I am helpful for any hints to a solution. Matthias.
