Enable compression

[oderayi]

Would be nice to have a switch to enable compression.

I'm using this to test my Angular production build and auditing via Lighthouse. Compression seems to be the major bottleneck for performance rating.

A PR for this would be welcome

@oderayi are you still working on this? The goal is to support gzip right?

[oderayi]

@joaosousafranco face palm moment. My apologies guys - I have the update on a local fork but I haven't got the time to refactor it into a "PR-ready" state yet. Yes the goal is to support gzip.

@simonh1000 @joaosousafranco So I just filed my PR for the update. Hope it gets merged soon.

[simonh1000]

any update on this guys? would be very helpful if this gets pushed to next release. :)

[simonh1000]

Just a couple of questions for the author and we'll be good to go.
Interested in what the use cases were though for this - just to repeat this is NOT a production server
