Is there a compressed file system available in FreeBSD?

I tried "mdconfig -ocompress" but it doesn't seem saving any spaces.
Does anyone know what is the status of this, if it works, and if so,
how it works?

Thanks to a couple of people who directly sent me a response.

I was aware of GEOM_UZIP and mkuzip. However, the problem is
it is read-only file system. I am looking for read-write
compressed file system.

Thanks,
Hiro
