pg doc recommends to use

pg_dumpall -c | gzip >backup.gz

In windows it writes whole file in uncompressed form to temporary file and
only then runs gzip.
This requires large amout of free disk space in temporary file space and
thus is not reasonable.

Which is reasonable way to backup cluster in Windows in compressed format ?
