You can do both. Here are some more numbers:
Original size: 40696 KB (.sgf)
SGC compressed: 17171 KB (.sgc) (42% of original size)
Compressing these files with WinRAR:
40969 KB -> 9407 KB
17171 KB -> 6366 KB (68% of the size without SGC compression)
Compressing with ZIP or similar helps a lot; using a domain-specific
compression first makes it even smaller.
