that fairly typical of trying to compress a file thats already been compressed.
standalone zip makes multiple tries, and will notice nothing works, so no compression is used and only a little overhead is added to the file.
with http/gzip the blocks must be ziped as they pass and every block pays the extra overhead, so the file is larger.

I tried using a custom Http Module to Gzip pages since my host wont enable GZIP via IIS. What i found was that page size actually increased - the increase came from the images. The total size of the 15 images on the page increased by about 15K with Gzip enabled using the Http Module. Anyone else experience this? The acutal size of the rendered HTML did decrease by about 50%..
