The ZIP format supports different encodings zip -Z xxx
there is store, deflate, and bzip2 (if it's supported). default is the default. You might find that store (uncompressed) is quicker than deflate. Keep in mind that the file that is downloaded to the users device - .ipa - is a ZIP file already, so you will not benefit from double compression. If you need to keep them all together,then try using store, see what the size of the resulting .ipa is, and the speed difference. I'm not sure that MfA has zipped packages, as I dont use it, but I would suspect it does.
