Part of the API specification says that the OpenStack API supports gzip compression in requests and responses. I have an extremely simple WSGI middleware implementation of this finished, but it does not support streaming which could potentially be non-performant for large responses.
Keep in mind this is middleware and could be added/removed easily. My initial thought is to not attempt to include this type of middleware in OpenStack because gzip compression is best handled by a proxy system such as Nginx/Apache/etc. If there are objections I can submit the gzip middleware implementation I have for review, or begrudgingly implement a streaming implementation. Thanks for any/all comments! _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
