That is exactly what I do using Bzip2. See:

You are not telling why you want to zip/unzip. If client and
server are in the same 100MB network then zipping/unzipping will not
be faster then sending uncompressed. When using a -slow- internet
connection, then yes, that brings speed.

You only have to use a small piece of the downloadable code as
lots of code is about using and managing files and archives.
