Fwiw, it was common trick in the Oracle world to create a named pipe
to gzip and then write your backup to it. I really like that way of
doing things but I suppose it's probably too old-fashioned to expect
to survive. And in practice while it worked for a manual process for a
sysadmin it's pretty awkward to automate reliably.
