Hi Jim,
  Have you considered looking at using the HTTP 1.1 zlib compression
built into the browser?

It's just a question of setting the right headers and then (obviously)
sending compressed content; the browser should take care of the
decoding for you before it gets anywhere near Actionscript.

AFAIK all modern browsers support it.

Hope that's helpful,
  Ian
