And it is reducing perl code from 13,997 bytes to 4,750 bytes! That's less than half of the original. And we're not even using gzip here.

Even better, only 85% of the crippled code, 29% of the original code, and still lossless and maintainable:

/tmp>gzip -9 < 11109869.pl > 11109869.pl.gz
/tmp>lzma -9 < 11109869.pl > 11109869.pl.lzma
/tmp>bzip2 -9 < 11109869.pl > 11109869.pl.bz2
/tmp>dir 11109869.pl*
