HTTP-accessible ontologies should be able to be setup to be downloaded with gzip (or equivalent) HTTP transfer encoding, which does indeed compress Web resources (ontologies or otherwise) transparently for transfer. I'm happy to help anyone who wants to set this up on their servers (at least if it's Apache-based, which is where most of my experience lies). (Apologies if the question was getting at something specific for ontologies, rather than more general for HTTP.)
