And the fact that it can grow data means you should really put a test to make sure that the compressed data is actually smaller... I once had something refuse to allow me to upload a file that was well below their 8Mb file limit while it was claiming it was above the limit, and I'm assuming it was because they were testing the size after compression and that file grew from 6Mb to above the limit.
