Enable GZIP compression on ACA web server #745

Closed iadgovuser59 closed 6 months ago

iadgovuser59 commented 7 months ago

Per the title, enabling GZIP compression on Tomcat for the ACA portal should result in substantial bandwidth savings for most web content (estimates from credible sources suggest anywhere from 70-90% savings, depending on file size). For most modern devices, the benefits outweigh any drawbacks. The savings should be evident for larger file sizes or payloads, such as returning a large number of certificates at once from associated APIs.
