Yes I tried running gzip on 8.6Mb file which I got 7.7Mb after compression.
Can you suggest any other way to achieve this, I want to keep cache for
5-6 months.
If you really have 'fully implemented' the youtube caching tricks then
you will probably need a bigger cache.

It might be possible but you likely wouldn't gain much if anything
from it.
FLVs are heavily compressed already so you're unlikely to get much
further
compression. Try grabbing a copy of one of those FLVs and running
gzip on
it to see.
