This makes a big difference in my tests:

Thank you!

I've merged this with one small change: I left the old GzipImage option as-is so that we would not break existing config files.

What do you think about flagging GzipImage as deprecated so we could remove it later? I can whip up a patch if you think it is a good idea.
