What is the samplerate of the file you want to compress?
Have you tried compressing 8000 Hz files with -q0?

I think what is being done is optimizing for low samplerates. 
AFAIK, Vorbis is as optimized as it can for 44.1 KHz files, and 
-q0 is the smallest you will get in that case, unless you use 
-M n, but then the sound can't be as good.
