In 6.0, with the full amd64 and i386 installers, the saving was around 50MB.
A small percentage, but still a significant amount of space.
In 6.5, with the minimal i386 installer, it's down to around 25MB.
I agree gz is much faster, but one of us only needs to prepare the 
orig.tar once per upstream release.

You can save time by grabbing my orig.tar from Launchpad:

wget 
https://launchpad.net/~ginggs/+archive/ubuntu/testing/+files/nvidia-cuda-toolkit_6.5.14.orig.tar.xz

Done.

Since r5260, I have no further local changes to make.
If you have no suggestions, I think it can be uploaded to experimental.
