There's still a significant space saving when compressing pdf with gzip (and there's zxpdf). This has been discussed on Debian-devel recently, but no consensus has been found so far. Or maybe, just nobody bothered to sum the discussion up. There are already bugs open on this against tetex-doc; I'm not going to change this until there's a Debian-wide consensus (got much more important things to do...).
