Uh... how can you say that as fact?  Did you test it?  Fat vim.zip vs.
vim-x11.tar.gz+vim-lite.tar.gz+vim-shared.tar.gz could easily be the same
size as vim.zip.  Gzip beats out Zip because it does the compression on a
larger single file (the tarball) and thus can find larger
dictionary/redundancy.  The three split out .tar.gz's will have close to
the same ability to compress as Zip in this case.
