GZIP output

Component: MythTV - Services API - Backend Version: 0.27-fixes
Severity: medium Keywords: gzip

Description

Calls such as /Guide/GetProgramGuide can produce over 1MB of data that compresses down to around 38KB. This makes a big difference when it comes to accessing the MythTV services when away from home, especially over 3G

To see the effect, you can test with

<VirtualHost *:80>

ServerName mythtv ProxyPass / ​http://localhost:6544/ SetOutputFilter DEFLATE DeflateFilterNote ratio AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/json AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/javascript

</VirtualHost>

The services API already uses GZIP by default in master.
