HTML resources very slow on take-home

Opening the HTML resource triggers a download from HTML files/folders from couchBase Lite into a local folder on the tablet, before opening it with Firefox. Downloading of the files and folders takes time and therefore renders the action "Slow".

@leonardmensah do you see any potential solutions?

@dogi Me and @leonardmensah met today and he proposed a solution that he is looking into.

He is looking into possible having a ziped version of all the html resources, and then unziping on demand what is needed by the user. With this step, it would require when html apps are added to the data base, that a ziped version is also added. Even tho this may add another step, it would be worth the time saved on the users end.

@leonardmensah is going to test his idea out and let us know if we should start adding zipped versions of HTML apps when adding them to the data base.
