I just found that the LDraw library on my laptop was outdated and downloaded complete.zip to install a new one. Considering that it's a zip and how LDraw files are all textual I wondered how well 7-zip would recompress it, and pretty well it did: the 36MB complete.zip reduced to a 22MB complete.7z (with -mx=9, i.e. max compression).
Maybe we could compress the complete library archive with 7zip and save bandwidth?
