Unfortunately this is not the case. These binary blobs are already

Can't you store them uncompressed?
Not really, but i can convert them into ascii format and store only the delta.
If you don't have the original uncompressed unencrypted file, what will
converting them to ascii actually give you?
Not much. I was blindly hoping that bzip2 may compress such files better,
though i haven't tested this hypothesis yet. Will let you know if the
result is different from the obvious one. :-)
