CSV is CSV, there is no compression available.  If your server and browser support GZip you can enable that and it will greatly speed things up.

You could also use something like jszip (http://stuk.github.io/jszip/) to decompress a zipped stream response from the server then feed it into a CSV parser (many to choose from or use D3's)
