As far as I know Xitami doesn't support compression at all at present.
As you noted the Xitami 2.5 beta (currently 2.5b5) does support many of
the core HTTP/1.1 features, such as virtual hosting, and keep alive
handling, but not all of them are completely debugged.

They'll be supported when someone writes the code to support them :-)

Xitami maintenance is largely on a "as time is available" basis at
iMatix, as evidenced by the relatively unchanged nature of Xitami over
the past year or two.  Contributions of source code to support these
features is always welcomed :-)
