If an instance of the <xref:System.IO.Compression.DeflateStream> class is created with the `mode` parameter equal to `Compress`, header information is inserted immediately. If no further action occurs, the stream appears as a valid, empty, compressed file.

Using the <xref:System.IO.Compression.DeflateStream> class to compress a file larger than 4 GB raises an exception.

By default, the compression level is set to <xref:System.IO.Compression.CompressionLevel.Optimal> when the compression mode is <xref:System.IO.Compression.CompressionMode.Compress>.
