Hi,

I have read things like - OS Cache Filter now supports GZIP compression in the filter chain.
What does this mean actually? I can't find any decent info on it.

My application uses the CacheFilter. So should I ALWAYS gzip my content before handling over to the CacheFilter and then will the cache filter store a gzipped version  AND an uncompressed version when it is cache?

So when it the next request needs to be served then the filter will check the accepts header to see if the client accepts gzip, if so return the gzipped version or else return an uncompressed version?

I am assuming it doesnt zip/unzip on the fly for every request?
