On one of our databases we have compression ratio close to 3, I think
that Oracle uses algorithm that is similar to gzip. One note to
remember is that RMAN does not copy empty untouched blocks, so if you
have large preallocated tablespaces you will see that your backups are
much less than real database size even without compression.
