proxy.golang.org : github.com/xi2/httpgzip

Package httpgzip implements an http.Handler wrapper adding gzip compression for appropriate requests. It attempts to properly parse the request's Accept-Encoding header according to RFC 2616 and does not do a simple string search for "gzip" (which will fail to do the correct thing for values such as "*" or "identity,gzip;q=0"). It will serve either gzip or identity content codings (identity meaning no encoding), or return 406 Not Acceptable status if it can do neither. It works correctly with handlers which honour Range request headers (such as http.FileServer) by removing the Range header for requests which prefer gzip encoding. This is necessary since Range requests apply to the gzipped content but the wrapped handler is not aware of the compression when it writes byte ranges. The Accept-Ranges header is also stripped from corresponding responses. For requests which prefer gzip encoding a Content-Type header is set using http.DetectContentType if it is not set by the wrapped handler. By default, httpgzip uses the standard library gzip implementation. To use the optimized gzip implementation from https://github.com/klauspost/compress instead, download and install httpgzip with the "kpgzip" build tag: or simply alter the import line in httpgzip.go. Thanks are due to Klaus Post for his blog post which inspired the creation of this package and is recommended reading:     https://blog.klauspost.com/gzip-performance-for-go-webservers/
