The verdict is a rogue crawler.  I don't know if it's possible to
disable zipping for one site only (lilypond.org is hosted on a
shared apache server).

Only text files are offered for zipping, and the largest that we have
is

    -rw-rw-r-- 1 graham  lilypond 4.2M Jul 28 13:14 
doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation-big-page.ja.html

Apparently, there were files of over 45MB in /tmp
