If you have a fast repo storage and you want some compression: ::

$ borg create --compression lz4 /path/to/repo::arch ~
If you have a less fast repo storage and you want a bit more compression (N=0..9,
0 means no compression, 9 means high compression): ::
$ borg create --compression zlib,N /path/to/repo::repo ~
$ borg create --compression zlib,N /path/to/repo::arch ~
If you have a very slow repo storage and you want high compression (N=0..9, 0 means
low compression, 9 means high compression): ::
$ borg create --compression lzma,N /path/to/repo::repo ~
$ borg create --compression lzma,N /path/to/repo::arch ~
You'll need to experiment a bit to find the best compression for your use case.
Keep an eye on CPU load and throughput.
