Nginx – Enable GZIP for CSS and JS files on NGINX server for Magento

gzipmagentonginx

I need to enable gzip compression on nginx server. As I have observed from firfox firebug NET tools, I have found that html file are gzip compressed. But Not the javascript files and CSS files.

I have already check Mime.types and nginx configuration file /etc/nginx/ngnix.conf and not found any issue.
still not able to see the css and javascript Gzip Compression.
My NGINX.conf entries are as below

gzip on;
gzip_disable "msie6";

gzip_vary on;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_comp_level 6;
gzip_buffers 16 8k;
gzip_http_version 1.1;
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;
