Compress data when sending #31

We should be able to easily compress the XML before sending it to the client. This could cut bandwidth usage, possibly allowing notaries to serve even more clients.

We can store the final compressed calculated data as the payload inside the cache.

We'll need to test this to see if uncompressing data has any performance impact on the client, and if that tradeoff is worth doing.

no need to do it - install NGinx as a front-end and let it handle this matter? See my proposed config
