Details

Maybe this will be a performance win? Should probably be configurable by the client somehow; maybe a request to the root actor. Shouldn't gzip for the local transport because that is just extra overhead. We need numbers! Imagining that instead of <number of bytes>:<json packet> we would have <number of gzipped bytes>:<gzipped json packet>

Julian, can we close this, or move it to the framework component if we care?

Let's close this, there's no clear incentive to implement this right now. Thanks for the ping!
