                 Key: HBASE-535
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-535
             Project: Hadoop HBase
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: rest
            Reporter: Bryan Duxbury
            Priority: Trivial


We could probably save a lot of network traffic by gzipping our requests and 
responses to REST when possible. A fair number of client libraries support this 
feature out of the box, and others could be fairly easily coded to work that 
way. Our content on requests and responses is probably very compressible, 
seeing as it is base64 encoded.
