Uh.  I try to make the transmission faster, or the files smaller?


In the former case, look for performance or throughput bottlenecks,
and try to amend or obviate them.

In the latter, I remonstrate with the client owner, and tell them
"stop that".  It's rare that the owner actually _means_ "It is a
technical necessity that I store this 12-zoopydoopybyte thing as one
file"; usually it's a matter of default configurations grown to cancers.
