The Ghostscript developers do hang around a number of places, and 
specifically on the #ghostscript IRC channel on freenode, I'd recommend 
asking questions there.

LZW is a lossless compression (unlike, for example, JPEG) so it should not

other parameters you are using so no further suggestions can be made.
