<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>Higher compression settings create smaller files, but take longer to process. The
default setting (<a class="xref" href="C1.Zip.CompressionLevelEnum.html#C1_Zip_CompressionLevelEnum_DefaultCompression">DefaultCompression</a>) provides
a good trade-off between compression and speed.</p>
