Warning: I tried the options: "-comp xz -Xbcj x86 -b 1024K -Xdict-size 1024K", and the result is that the images runs much slower, this is because the decompression resources needed are bigger, I have attached a graph showing the exact differences between space saving and boot time comparisons, hope it is useful for someone.
