mod_ext_filter and gunzip query

["Atul Tyagi" <tyagi.atul@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have issues with my disk usage on my webservers so I have
a plan in mind. Just wanted to know if I am on right track. I would
like to gzip my contents and use mod_ext_filter with gunzip. The
deliverable I am looking at is, all the contents are zipped and when
contents move out of apache ( SetOutputFilter ) they are gunzipped and
sent to the client. Hope the below code will work.

I am using apache 2.0.52

 # mod_ext_filter directive to define the external filter
ExtFilterDefine gzip mode=output cmd=/bin/gunzip

<Location /gunzipped>
# core directive to cause the gunzip filter to be
# run on output
SetOutputFilter gunzip

# mod_header directive to add
# "Content-Encoding: gzip" header field
Header set Content-Encoding gunzip
</Location>

Please let me know if I am on the right track.

Thanks,
Atul
