If you are saving a file do the OutputStream so you have to disable the buffer at a line before the .Save command, like this:

            Response.BufferOutput = false; -- <- Must include this line before the Save method
            _zip.Save(Response.OutputStream);
            Response.Flush();
            Response.End();
