AppendChunkGZip

Similar to the regular AppendChunk method, except in this method all chunks are decompressed on the server upon receipt, using GZIP compression standard. This speeds up large file transfers significantly by compressing each chunk. Use of this method requires that you first compress all chunks using the GZIP standard. (Note: if you are using .NET, this compression method is available as the 'GZipStream' class library)
