Question
I'd like to enable GZIP compression for public assets and HTTP responses for performance. My site has a lot of mobile access.
As far as I can tell, there is nothing built into Play Framework to support this, and Heroku doesn't seem to have a solution either.
What is the best way to start getting some compression on my app?

OTHER TIPS
Ok I've had a go at minifying and gzipping all STATIC resources - nobody seems to have attempted this yet.
Play provides a hook by means of a plugin, but it seems a little hacky as you have to set all the caching headers and stuff.
Seems to work so far though:
