compression and the Primary XML index

Is SS08 compression going to help me with my XML. The Primary index is really just a table it appears, so I was hoping to compress that ... plesae?

We are currently doing tests to see if compression will be useful for XML indexes (both from savings point of view and performance point of view). Based on the results, and whether we have resources available or not, support might be added.

It is definitely one of the areas that we are considering.

Thanks,
