Using --rsyncable with gzip really helps if you rsync the compressed
file to somewhere else it exists. It greatly reduces the amount of data
sent for files that a do not have a massive amount of changes between syncs.

To backup a database I do:
nice -n +19 pg_dump -Fc database | nice -n +19 gzip --rsyncable

If -Fc option is compressed by default I dont need gzip the
backup, but I need pass --rsyncable and -n options.
How can I pass gzip options to compress in pg_dump?
pg_dump isn't using the gzip program, it's just performing compression
per the gzip compression specification, and doesn't provide those two
features to control it's processing (or any features beyond what's
documented on the pg_dump reference page).
