Hi,
Currently I am running Squid Version 2.7 Stable 4 on a Linux ES3 box with 2.5GB RAM. Basically there is no caching configured on the squid apps and it is being used like a middle man between client and web/apps servers which has both http and https transaction. Would like to know does squid support compression for https transaction (ie. CONNECT xxx.xxx.com:443")??? If it does, is thecompression by default or is there some settings or configuration needed??? I am asking cause httpwatch indicated no compression when I accessed https website through squid proxy. However if I accessed the https website directly, httpwatch does show that there are compression.

i think this has nothing to do with HTTPS. It's indeed related to the fact that Squid is NOT fully HTTP/1.1 compliant. Squid can RECEIVES HTTP/1.1 requiests, but it only sends HTTP/1.0 requests. And in HTTP/1.0, compression is not supported.

So all requests done by a squid wont have any compression at all. HTTP and HTTPS ones. And that's because of squid being a HTTP/1.0 proxy.
