“Known as” names a script by where it comes from or what it says it is. “Gzipped” is each file compressed as gzip would send it. “Sets” is what its answer asked the browser to keep, in its headers; what a script stores once it runs is not seen here, as none is run.
Then, analytics that weighs under 2 KB

Questions
How big is the Google Analytics script?
It depends on what a property loads: this tool weighs the scripts a page names, as they are sent to it.
Does a deferred script slow the page down?
A deferred or async script is fetched without holding the page up; a plain script stops the page until it has loaded and run.
Does it see what a script loads later?
No. Only the scripts named in the page's HTML are weighed; what they fetch once they run is not seen, as none is run.
