Thanks Geoff! The thing is that I'd rather not have to add a servlet filter.
Chris, I'm on Tomcat 7.0.53. The files don't have .gz extensions; they end in .json and .terrain. If I have gzip="true" will tomcat add "Content-encoding: gzip" to all requests or only for files that end in .gz? Having "Content-encoding: gzip" is the only way the browsers will gunzip on the fly. I was able to accomplish what I need with Apache with the following configuration, but my preference is to use Tomcat. AddType application/json .json AddType application/vnd.quantized-mesh .terrain AddEncoding x-gzip .gz .tgz .json .terrain Thanks!
