The tar image is going to be generated as one big stream, but since
you are working with the command line you could pipe through gzip and
split (-b) if you would like to have it split into a set of smaller
files for easier transport.   You would then have to reconstruct the
original stream by zcat'ing the parts back together for tar to
eventually extract the original files.
