Sadly NSHTTPRequest doesn't return the gzip encoded NSData, there is no way to know how much data you received when fetching gzip encoded content.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3413774/how-do-i-track-the-download-progress-of-gzip-encoded-web-content says ASIHTTPRequest dig into CFNetwork to be able to give you a download progress status. Right now the only solution is disabling gzip completely, which is bad for iOS apps.

Any plan to be able to fix this progress download for gzip encoded content?
