Sure, but there is not much magic in there. What I mostly did was to
remove mod_deflate from places (that is, Locations and Directories)
where I don't need/want it in reality instead of having it enabled
globally.
So my configuration for the reverse proxy approximately looks like this:
------CUT------
<VirtualHost 172.17.3.98:443>
ServerName secure.example.com:443
[...]
<Proxy *>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from all
</Proxy>
# ProxyHTMLLogVerbose On
# produces huge amounts of logging data, because
# mod_ssl is debug logging now as well
# LogLevel Debug
DeflateCompressionLevel 6
# conflicts with mod_proxy_html, at least in my case :-)
# AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml
ProxyHTMLInterp On
ProxyHTMLExtended On
ProxyPass /someApp/ http://internal.example.com:1520/someApp/
ProxyHTMLURLMap http://internal.example.com/someApp/ /someApp/
<Location /someApp/>
ProxyPassReverse /
SetOutputFilter proxy-html
ProxyHTMLURLMap / /someApp/
ProxyHTMLURLMap /someApp /someApp
</Location>
<Location /deflatedStuff/>
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
[...]
</Location>
------CUT------
The best indication that mod_proxy_html was not doing anything was by
turning on it's logging features and finding no traces of it in the log
file afterwards.
