I've heard nice things about nginx (reverse proxy as well), I gave it a try but it had different rewrite rules from Apache and doesn't have log rotation mechanism.
The most important drawback of nginx is that it does not do any caching, so it really can';t help with the performance improvement strategies that I'd be interested in. In general, I try to set up things in a manner that only those requests hit my Hunchentoot backend that really create dynamic content which is different from other requests. Everything else is handled by the frontend and served from its cache.
Back to Hunchentoot. I couldn't find how "Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate" request is handled? When the client sends this header, HT doesn't compress the content responding with "Content-Encoding: gzip", is there a way to enable it to compress some text or CSS content?
No.
