Take care that that "PHP deflate" != "HTTP deflate".
The deflate encoding used in HTTP is actually zlib encoded.
This is what PHP functions return:
gzencode() == gzip
gzcompress() == zlib (aka. HTTP deflate)
gzdeflate() == *raw* deflate encoding
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
gzdeflate — Komprimiert eine Zeichenkette
Diese Funktion komprimiert die übergebene Zeichenkette mit dem
DEFLATE
-Datenformat.
Zu Einzelheiten bezüglich des DEFLATE-Kompressions-Algorithmus siehe das Dokument "» DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification version 1.3" (RFC 1951).
data
Die zu komprimierenden (deflate == entleeren) Daten.
level
Der Komprimierungsfaktor. Kann von 0 für keine Kompression bis 9 für maximale Kompression übergeben werden. Wird er nicht übergeben, ist der Standard-Komprimierungsfaktor der Standard-Komprimierungsfaktor der zlib-Bibliothek.
encoding
Eine der
ZLIB_ENCODING_*
-Konstanten.
Die komprimierte (entleerte) Zeichenkette, oder false
, wenn ein Fehler
auftrat.
Beispiel #1 gzdeflate()-Beispiel
<?php
$compressed = gzdeflate('Compress me', 9);
echo $compressed;
?>

gzcompress produces longer data because it embeds information about the encoding onto the string. If you are compressing data that will only ever be handled on one machine, then you don't need to worry about which of these functions you use. However, if you are passing data compressed with these functions to a different machine you should use gzcompress.
