 Flush pending data. Don't call this frivolously, premature flushes negatively
 impact the effectiveness of the compression algorithm.
 
+Calling this only flushes data from the internal zlib state, and does not
+perform flushing of any kind on the streams level. Rather, it behaves like a
+normal call to `.write()`, i.e. it will be queued up behind other pending
+writes and will only produce output when data is being read from the stream.
