I updated apache from version 2.2 to 2.4 some time ago and now all responses are not compressed anymore by mod_deflate. The limit seems to be 68 bytes. I tried to find some setting for this but could not find anything - is it even configurable?
Example:
echo "hellooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" > /var/www/html/index.html
Response is not gzipped:
Content-Length: 68
After adding one more character:
echo "helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" > /var/www/html/index.html
The response headers are ok and the content is compressed
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Length: 28
Any help is appreciated!
