I am running pg_dump on a database while on another machine running a

Does pg_dump wait for idle activity before it completes or how does it
determine when it has all the records needed for archiving?

"pg_dump is a utility for backing up a PostgreSQL database. It makes
consistent backups even if the database is being used concurrently.
pg_dump does not block other users accessing the database (readers or
writers).
I am using the compressed mode and also using xz.
Again, why?
Thanks,
