Compressed Storage Support: $wgCompressRevisions
If this is set on, all future revisions will be compressed on page save, but only if zlib support is available and enabled in PHP.

[edit] Details

We can also compress text in the old revisions; for this, use the script compressOld.php located in directory /maintenance/storage. Any compressed revisions will be decompressed on load regardless of this setting but will not be readable at all if zlib support is not available.
