Clients that do not support gzip will have their Accept-Encoding header removed. For more information on how gzip is implemented please see the chapter on gzip in the Varnish reference.
+ Note: Enabling gzip on a running Varnish instance using ESI can
+ yield content where cached, uncompressed pages have compressed ESI
+ elements. To avoid this, either ban all ESI-related elements before
+ enabling gzip, or restart Varnish.
