LZOlayer Filesystem is a filesystem which allows you to use transparently compressed files, just as they would be normal files. Both read and write operations are possible, along with other most common system calls. It consumes little memory in my opinion, because files are divided into blocks, which can be decompressed separetly. In other words, if you (or an application) would like to read byte 4,500,000 in a file sized 5,000,000 bytes, it only decompresses a block which constain wanted data. Write operation is based on a packet gathering and after reaching its limit it 'syncs' the data. It allows it's user to write/modify files pretty fast, despite the fact it's block divided. LZOlayer FileSystem was meant to support only LZO compression algorythm, because it has extremely low compression/decompression time. However, currently it supports LZO and ZLIB (but only one at the run-time!) compression algorythms.
