Google makes reference to gzip and image/binary files at Minimize payload size


Don't use gzip for image or other binary files.

Image file formats supported by the web, as well as videos, PDFs and other binary
formats, are already compressed; using gzip on them won't provide any
additional benefit, and can actually make them larger. To compress
images, see Optimize images.
