[Bug 770441] New: build.gnome.org could support mod_deflate

["sysadmin" (GNOME Bugzilla) <bugzilla gnome org>]

Bug ID	770441
Summary	build.gnome.org could support mod_deflate
Classification	Infrastructure
Product	sysadmin
Version	unspecified
OS	Linux
Status	NEW
Severity	normal
Priority	Normal
Component	Other
Assignee	sysadmin-maint@gnome.bugs
Reporter	rstrode@redhat.com
QA Contact	sysadmin-maint@gnome.bugs
CC	walters@verbum.org
GNOME version	---

Some of the files in build.gnome.org are big, sparse files that should compress
extremely well, but it looks like there's no way to transfer them compressed:

╎❯ telnet build.gnome.org 80

It would be neat if build.gnome.org turned on mod_deflate (though maybe the
files should get xz'd as part of the continuous output, adding walters to cc
list)
