FEATURE: Add optional gzip compression to snapshots transporter requests #469

Closed OsamaSayegh closed 3 years ago

OsamaSayegh commented 3 years ago

This adds optional gzip-compression to requests made by the snapshots transporter. It's off by default and can be changed via the new snapshots_transport_gzip_requests config.

can we just do this all transparently with content-encoding: gzip on the request?

Sorry I'm not sure I follow. Are you asking if it's possible to avoid doing the compression ourselves and let something else handle it by simply indicating we want compression via the content-encoding: gzip header?
