That's an easy one: When the compressed file (including gzip-headers etc.) is not smaller than the original file, store it uncompressed. This can be enhanced with some percentage or watermark value (e. G. we need at least a reduction of 42 bytes or 2%). (When we use packing, then the difference of the container size with and without the file is to be compared.)
