While upgrading to 2.6.1 from 0.25.5 I implemented the http_compression option
of remote WAN clients with good results.
However with report enabled in the agent the PUT of the report is not
compressed and quite large at times.
I suggest compressing the report at the client before PUT'ing it to the server,
where the server will see a compressed report and deal with it appropriately.
Apparently using http compression w/ PUT requests is somewhat hit and miss
which is why i suggest having the client compress the data rather than the
comms.
According to my nginx logs some reports are 3.5 Mb in size which on a slow WAN
is a big transfer.
With nginx's default 1M client body limit is seem this logged in its error log.
2010/09/16 09:20:16 [error] 7380#0: *576434 client intended to send too
large body: 3584813 bytes
This is overcome by increasing the nginx limit w/ client_max_body_size option.
