Have a look at gzcon, for decompressing data as they arrive. From the
help file:
‘gzcon’ provides a modified connection that wraps an existing
connection, and decompresses reads or compresses writes through
that connection. Standard ‘gzip’ headers are assumed.
There is no indication in the gzcon help file that explicitly prohibits
socketConnections. Also, see memDecompress for in-memory decompression
of the entire object.
