As I mentioned in another comment, the minigzip used is very suboptimal due to reading and decompressing only 1 byte per inflate() call. Please retest with --zlib-compat or the fix that was merged today.

Sure thing, updated.

I'm not in the habit of including compression level 6 in the results, since the application I care about defaults to 5 :) And I wanted a good spread of different compression levels in the results.
