Kept compression of route list, but removed compression of route names. This compression was working by finding words > 5 chars, and encoding them in #{}, then decoding upon load in browser. Since the difference wasn't really great, and caused extra work for browser, I took it out.
Add this code to environment.rb at bottom (after all other things are loaded):
# Generate routes now...
JavascriptRoutes.generate(:lite => ENV['ROUTES_JS_LITE'])
