Do not GZIP TCP stream #61

Closed michielproce closed 11 years ago

michielproce commented 11 years ago

Do not use GZIP, as the headers will contain \0 bytes. graylog2-server uses \0 as a delimiter for TCP frames.

+1, this is correct

The TCP GELF input of graylog2-server does only support uncompressed data because of the NUL byte deframing.
