RackGzfile
By default, rake assets:precompile generates gzipped versions of certain types of files. Servers (like Nginx with the GzipStatic module) can then serve these gzipped assets so they can get the reduced bandwidth of gzip without needing to compress the file on every request. This pull request will hopefully bring this functionality to Rack. In the meantime, this gem can be used.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'rack_gzfile'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Usage
Rack::GzFile can be used as a drop-in replacement for Rack::File.
Usage with Rack::Static
By default, this gem monkey patches Rack::Static to use gzip. All that you need to do is require the gem.
