Mike McKay created COUCHDB-2800:
-----------------------------------
Summary: All gzip encoding
Key: COUCHDB-2800
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2800
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: New Feature
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Components: HTTP Interface
Reporter: Mike McKay
Currently the only way to download compressed results from couchdb is by adding
nginx or apache as a proxy, which adds complexity and, at least for me,
instability (large replications over slow/unreliable connections die). Since
CouchDB is an http server it should be able to respond to requests with gzipped
data. For me, this is often an order of magnitude reduction in the amount of
data transferred.
