Part of our stackable f/s project (FiST) includes a Gzipfs stackable compression f/s. There was a paper on it in Usenix 2001 and there's code in the latest fistgen package. See http://www1.cs.columbia.edu/~ezk/research/fist/
Performance of Gzipfs is another matter, esp. for writes in the middle of files. :-)
