JFFS2 already compresses, and quite extensively. Your problem seems to
be that you have too many libraries: you almost certainly do not need
every library out there. My /lib/ is 4.9MB, and this includes kernel
modules (my toolchain's lib/ is around 31MB, so you can see that most of
the libraries are not being used). If you remove all the unused
libraries, you will likely cut things down considerably. The OSK Newbie
Guide talks about this in the Filesystem chapter.
