Yep, I transfer backups files all the time with -Fc and never the problem was rsync

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.

    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).
