Sandeep More commented on KNOX-732:
-----------------------------------
There are couple of ways Gzip can be added/configured in Jetty:
Using Gzip Handler
(https://eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/9.3.x/gzip-filter.html)
- This should be fairly easy to hook-up, probably just add to the existing
list of handlers and we should be done.
- Recommended way going forward (over Gzip Filter )
- Need to upgrade Jetty for this, currently Jetty is on 9.2.15.x and this
feature is in 9.3.x.
- Need to refactor some code (e.g. in gateway-test-utils which depends on
some classes that current Jetty versions, 9.3.x +, refactored)
Using the Gzip Filter
(http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/9.2.10.v20150310/gzip-filter.html)
- No upgrades, no refactoring.
- Gzip Filter is deprecated going forward.
- Gzip Filter needs to be applied multiple places.
Or the other option is to backport Gzip Handler change, which might not be
clean and we'll have to throw it away once we upgrade Jetty.
Any preference, thoughts or biases ?

> When using the Ambari UI proxy service it is observed that the app.js file is
> about 7MB whereas it is much smaller (about 1MB) when the UI is not proxied
> by Knox.
> A compression solution needs to be investigated. Possibly by adding a gzip
> compression handler or filter to jetty.
