Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-816:
----------------------------------------------

No, it was provided as an experimental option in 4.1 (and gave us a lot of 
grief) . Content compression was enabled by default as of 4.3 only.

> I think HttpClient really ought to support Accept-Encoding: gzip without 
> requiring any effort from the client developer. Allowing Content-Encoding: 
> gzip responses can be a great bandwidth saver.
> But it also needs to cater for developers that have coded their own solution 
> to this issue.
