Data Compression  MSSQL 2008 technots .....  Your results depend on your workload, database, and hardware....

Sounds cool but i wonder what real world results are??

For IO bound systems lots of pluses
but for CPU bound workloads it would suck

I can imagine my big stats tables , with 300-400M rows, all big ints, that  - mostly - require that sort of length. Gain, none, hassle 100%.
