Compressing connector for Pentaho

gistfile1.txt

Enable GZIP Traffic compression for slow LAN - actually sacrifices performance to much faster network access - you should not apply this mindlessly
server.xml
<Connector

Tweaked JVM ARGS from start-pentaho.sh 
- enabled Market Place via proxy server so it can install plugins via SSH remote port via ssh <pentaho> -R 3128:<httpproxy>:<proxyport>, 
- enabled G1 GC, inc
- more aggressive JIT compilation
- enable Pentaho SSH/JMX monitoring via ssh <pentaho> -L8090:127.0.0.1:8090
