There is no way mentioned about how to compress repeated lines.
E.g., od(1) does

0014000 ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff
*
0016000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0008 0000
0016020 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
*

Whereas hex(1) just fills our screen with
0x00000300: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff - ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ................
0x00000310: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff - ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ...............
0x00000320: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff - ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ...............
