Yes, using mod_deflate.c. In /awips2/httpd_pypies/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: SetOutputFilter DEFLATE <IfModule mod_deflate.c> DeflateFilterNote Input instream DeflateFilterNote Output outstream DeflateFilterNote Ratio ratio LogFormat '%t "%r" %{outstream}n/%{instream}n (%{ratio}n%%)' deflate CustomLog logs/compression_log deflate </IfModule> and compression stats are logged to /awips2/httpd_pypies/var/log/httpd/compression_log Whether you could run CAVE with both ‘-alertviz’ and ‘-component thinclient’ options variously worked or broke over many different releases. Sometimes it even varied between Windows and Linux builds in the same release, so last I heard the combination was not officially supported. Unidata CAVE for Linux is run with default command line options "-alertviz -component thinclient" since July 2015, and I have disabled the JMS connection functionality in the connectivity preferences dialog. The question is if the Unidata build supports those few extra features of thin_client mode that eke out that last little bit of network performance (thrift compression, “use cache only” options, don’t connect JMS, etc) and if they are worth supporting. Yes, the Unidata build supports all of this. NWS CAVE to Unidata EDEX and vice-versa has never worked for me. Now that Unidata has a MacOS client, there is not yet a common EDEX that can serve all of Linux, MacOS, Windows. Some users have reported success connecting NWS CAVE to Unidata EDEX, but such use is not supported by either Unidata or NWS. ________________________________ The information contained in this email message is intended only for the use of the individual(s) to whom it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged and sensitive.
