    Hello AHMEDMALICK,

    I am Jaspreet Singh.

    You cannot compress the system image while it is being created but after creation you can use compression softwares to do so but since the file will be in multiples of GB it is recommended not to compress since there is always a chance of file corruption.

    And again when the time comes to restore you will need an uncompressed system image since a compressed system image cannot be used.
