I'm having a difficult time getting files (.js, .png) to gzip under my configuration. Can someone tell me if I'm doing something wrong?

# Django project server { listen 80; server_name dev.foo.com;

location ^~ /media { root /usr/local/backyardpost/trunk/static/admin; access_log on; access_log /var/log/nginx/static_media.log download; }

location ~*

|rtf|mpeg)$ { limit_rate 2000K; access_log /var/log/nginx/django_media.log download; access_log on; }

location / { fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:8080; include bots.conf; include fastcgi.conf; access_log /var/log/nginx/django.log main; }

# output compression saves bandwidth gzip on; gzip_http_version 1.0; gzip_min_length 1100; gzip_comp_level 2; gzip_proxied any; gzip_types text/plain text/html text/css text/xml application/x-javascript application/pdf application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;

}

Seems like some things (HTML) are being gzipped by nginx automatically, but I have a JavaScript file being served at: http://dev.foo.com/site_media/js/backyardpost.js that isn't being gzipped. The file is 6.7K, so it doesn't make sense to me. I have a CSS file at http://dev.foo.com/site_media/css/backyardpost.css that supposedly is being gzipped (it is 6.3K).

Any idea what's going on?

Also, I am using Yahoo!'s Yslow plugin for Firefox to detect what components are being gzipped. Should I be looking at something else instead?

Thanks,

Matthew
