Hello;

You might want to compare your code with archivers/lzo, which is meant to be
faster that the other archivers but is GPLd. 

Just to mention .. NetBSD has a pool(9) that you might want to check out. I
think it was used in the original tmpfs:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pool&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=NetBSD+3.0&format=html

Also ... if you're way too enterprising you might want to look at Heidemann's
Ph. D. thesis
http://www.isi.edu/~johnh/PAPERS/Heidemann95a.html

A compression fs layer has always been a greatly desired feature (I think).

cheers,

    Pedro.
