Instead of doing your own compressed dump to flash, how about this: (1) Enable persistence. (2) When you want a backup, force rotation by sending the journal SIGUSR2 [1]. (3) Copy away the rotated journal file and delete it.
This would allow getting entries in a way that's compressed and never duplicated between files.
