Improve performance - compression
Not sure, why this has not been done by default, but to reduce the HTML-page sizes (typically 140-160KB), adjust the following:
1) Stop AppManager
2) Make a backup of ./working/apache/tomcat/conf/backup/server.xml
3) Adjust the ./working/apache/tomcat/conf/backup/server.xml to be the following:
4) Make sure that you remove the comments properly, so that it shows the Connector section as above.
5) You will notice with Wireshark or HTTP-sniffer that gzip-compression is now enabled. (and page-sizes are down from 120KB to 20KB)
