flashing large eMMC partitions with ext4

Hi

I have a question regarding making ext4 image for
large eMMC partition.
 
We have a 4G partition in our embedded device
in which we want to use ext4 filesystem.
But for that we have to create a 4G image.
flashing this 4G image to the eMMC takes a long
time. Is there any way to reduce this time?

For vfat, you can truncate the image leaving only
non zero-filled blocks which makes the image very
short and the time for flashing is reduced.
Is something similar to that possible for ext4?

Thanks
Robin
