    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-1114?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12794969#comment-12794969 ] 

Philippe Marschall commented on WFLY-1114:
------------------------------------------

Actually this is not only a console related feature but a general feature. Generally you want two things to happen
* serve files using #sendfile
* serve gzipped versions resources 

Compressing resources in memory saves bandwidth but is suboptimal since the whole resource needs to be loaded into memory.

Jetty implements this like this:
* if the {{Accept-Encoding}} includes "gzip"
* and there is a ".gz" version of the file (eg. you request "style.css" and there is "style.css.gz")

then the ".gz" version is served
