Yup....just to add to krmathis's explanation, no matter what speed/compression factor you choose, FLAC remains lossless (unlike lossy MP3).
The levels of compressions will determine a) time it takes to compress/decompress; b) the amount of disk space it takes up; and c) the CPU load needed for compr/decompr.
Cheers,
