if you're running web2py under iis (and not just using iis as a reverse 
proxy to the rocket webserver) you need to write a rewrite rule to serve 
gzipped files.
if static files are handled by web2py it takes care automatically to serve 
the .gz file instead of the "raw" one if it's existing

the resulting conf would look like

<match url="(.*)" ignoreCase="false" />
        <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
                <add input="{REQUEST_METHOD}" pattern="POST" ignoreCase="false" 
negate="true" />
                <add input="{HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING}" pattern="gzip" 
ignoreCase="false" />
                <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}.gz" matchType="IsFile" />
        </conditions>
        <action type="Rewrite" url="{R:0}.gz" />
