The linux answer to ZFS is btrfs, which is still in development, and not much of an answer in my opinion ;-).
Also, there does not appear to be any "stock" linux kernel filesystem that supports transparent compression read/write. SquashFS is read-only. What Linux distribution are you using? It might bundle a patch or other filesystems. I would suggest trying gzip --rsyncable. Compress the files with gzip --rsyncable at the source, and rsync should be able to find significant matches (especially for updates of log files). -- RPM -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
