Enable compression (gzip) without fastboot

[ghost]

In this issue (#14) they spoke about gzip when using Fastboot.

And if not?

@johnunclesam it should enabled by default via the static buildpack which is used by this buildpack. Are you seeing differently?

[ghost]

Yes, in my Chrome I see total 900KB instead of 240KB (which is the size Heroku tells me when I deploy). And in "Content-Encoding" I see nothing (in "Network" Tab).

@johnunclesam I'm not able to reproduce this when I create a fresh app from this Heroku button that uses this buildpack. Do you have a custom static.json defined or any other config that might overriding the default behavior?

Dear @Dhaulagiri 3 minutes ago I tried with https://example.herokuapp.com and everything ok. But If I try with http://example.com which is a CNAME to that, it is not working in my Chrome. Strange affair.

If I test with http://gzipwtf.com/ the same http://example.com it works. Chrome no. Why this?

Just HTTPS problem?

I'm using Namecheap for domain and CNAME.

I have a free dyno and not an ssl endpoint (which is just too expensive).

https should not have an affect. Can you provide a repro case for us to dig into this more?

This buildpack has been deprecated (c06c1e3), and it's also no longer possible for changes to be made to it, due to the issues mentioned in #61.
