Mod_zip and limit_rate

Server NGINX
1

Hi,

I’ve setup nginx (1.0.14) with mod_zip (1.1.6) and it runs fine “by
itself”.

The problem is that limit_rate and limit_rate_after directives (in the
location where the files are being
served from) are not respected.

I can download at full throttle while when not using mod_zip they work.

Anyone has encountered this issue, any workarounds?

Thanks
Stelios

Ignore this msg. mod_zip works fine.

The problem was limit_rate_after that I’ve put in at some point, so I
didn’t download a large enough file to see the limit_rate kick in.

Just out of interest, does this combination of directives rate limit
before or after the stream is zipped?

Directives limit_rate/limit_rate_after count (and limit) actual
bytes sent to a client, i.e. after the stream is zipped (or
gzipped, or whatever else).
