Guys, I just commited a couple of HTTP related performance improvements: - [0] Made the gzip handler work as expected. Now we actually send the correct header and receive the compressed data! Noticable speed boost in servers that support gzip encoding. - [1] Added the If-None-Match header to all requests sent during the audit phase to reduce HTTP traffic if the remote server supports ETag/If-None-Match. Enjoy!
