Yeah, ZWC format isn't compressed -- it stores nearly all the raw text
as well as the "compilation" linkage so that the XTRACE option and the
functions command can continue to work.  The only thing removed is the
inconsequential whitespace.

The penalty probably isn't much if you aren't using very many of the
functions packed in the ZWC.  In fact if your use is sparse enough it
may actually be more expensive to compile.
