Yes, it does. It handles any content. The only restriction is mod_ssl,
it does not work with mod_ssl directly.

What do you want to know? :)

mod_gzip can compress in-memory. Therefore is the directive
'mod_gzip_maximum_inmem_size'. But mod_gzip uses inmem-compression only
for files up to 60000 bytes, because it is not really performant to work
with memory blocks bigger than this. Also some malloc() implementations
have problems with sizes bigger than 60000 bytes.
