size of savesets under AdvFS, compression ratio

I am using AdvFS, DU 4.0D, AlphaServer 1000.

Short of using NSR, is there a way to check saveset sizes, and/or
monitor compression ratio? (Well, if I find out the saveset
size, I can figure out the compression). Neither vdump, nor
vrestore provide that information.

If, in fact, NSR is the only way to do that ... could you briefly
outline its advantages as oppose to a plain backup script. I have
two Alphas, both with tape drives, and I wonder if using NSR would
be an overkill for me.

Thanks!
