Thank you guys, pigz (32-bit port) is working fine :)
BACKUP_FILTER 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Pigz\pigz.exe --fast --processes 3 --blocksize 512'
RESTORE_FILTER 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Pigz\pigz.exe --decompress'
Fast compression is enough, there is not much difference between --fast and --best. (--best needs a little less space but much more time)

Subject: Backup compression with windows
Hi,
did anyone successfully use 7-zip or something else as BACKUP_FILTER and RESTORE_FILTER ?
With the 14 years old windows port of gzip it's possible to use the filters, but the speed and the compression are realy bad compared to 7-zip.
Thanks.
Joe
