What problem are you trying to resolve with this feature?
Large intermediary rasters and I/O
How do you address this problem now?
Work on smaller rasters or use significant disk space.
Your ideas for a solution:
Currently, intermediary rasters are stored as GRID files. By switching to
GeoTIFF, compression methods can be used prior to each raster.save() operation,
cutting down on disk usage and I/O
Please provide any additional information below:
Compression can be set a few ways: the easiest is probably to use the
compressionType property within each raster object:

Other ways include setting the arcpy.env.compression variable, and then
applying the environment to later raster creation steps.
