Now at startup, during DB compression, nothing is displayed; since the procedure can take several seconds, this can be confusing.
I would show a simple dialog, like the one used during the migrations.

It is not so easy to show the UI without the storage system booted up yet.

Maybe a solution could be a simple native alert window that informs that a backup is going to be executed, and it will take some time?
So the user can confirm, or also skip the procedure.
