Specify the compression level to use in archive formats that
support compression. (Currently only the custom archive
format supports compression.)
Specify the compression level to use. Zero means no compression.
For the custom archive format, this specifies compression of
individual table-data segments, and the default is to compress
at a moderate level.
For plain text output, setting a nonzero compression level causes
the entire output file to be compressed, as though it had been
fed through <application>gzip</>; but the default is not to compress.
The tar archive format currently does not support compression at all.
