Bug Description
Hi all,
i've noted that Inkscape's tutorial folder is very big.
Currently, it's 15 MB and there are not so much
translated languages. I think a useful optimization
would be compressing the tutorials and distributing
them on .svgz format.
I suppose this involves:
* Compressing the tutorials on build time. Tutorials
should remain plain SVG anyway since they are on the
SVN repository, but they could be compressed on build time.
* Changing the mechanism for loading tutorials, and
make it search for compressed tutorial (.svgz) first,
and uncompressed tutorial if not found.
Regards.

Nice idea!
We could also use scour in order to optimize it first (but it seems that scour doesn't handle the tutorials very well at the moment). Probably too late for 0.47, but I add it on my 0.48 todos.
