Duke, Re: "The technology, called Memory Expansion Technology (MXT), doubles the effective memory by using a compression scheme. Compression ordinarily slows performance, as the information is squeezed and then expanded again, but IBM and ServerWorks have managed to get around the problem by using a special 32MB patch of high-speed "cache" memory which stores uncompressed data..."

This sounds like a great technology, but it is also very application specific. I doubt it will see much use, except for the high end, where memory is expensive, and a lot is needed.
