I must warn people - using Compressed mode is SLOW. It took many times the normal amount to make a compressed rootfs - I'm guessing that the CPU's only running at like 250mhz; I'm gonna have to see about that.
What effect does compression have on the restores? I presume it's using basic gzip compression? If it's not too slow on restores, then just gzipping the backups afterwards sounds like a good option to save space.
