Benno Evers commented on MESOS-9451:
------------------------------------
Good point, I've opened MESOS-9453 for our lack of handling of the "identity"
encoding.
> Libprocess endpoints can ignore required gzip compression
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MESOS-9451
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-9451
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Benno Evers
> Priority: Major
> Labels: libprocess
>
> Currently, libprocess decides whether a response should be compressed by the
> following conditional:
> {noformat}
> if (response.type == http::Response::BODY &&
> response.body.length() >= GZIP_MINIMUM_BODY_LENGTH &&
> !headers.contains("Content-Encoding") &&
> request.acceptsEncoding("gzip")) {
> [...]
> {noformat}
> However, this implies that a request sent with the header "Accept-Encoding:
> gzip" can not rely on actually getting a gzipped response, e.g. when the
> response size is below the threshold:
> {noformat}
> $ nc localhost 5050
> GET /tasks HTTP/1.1
> Accept-Encoding: gzip
> HTTP/1.1 200 OK
> Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2018 12:49:56 GMT
> Content-Type: application/json
> Content-Length: 12
> {"tasks":[]}
> {noformat}
