One of my customers (at least) is using xip2fs for their WebSphere environment. They initially looked at it with the idea of saving real storage across multiple guests, but stayed with it because it radically reduced the startup time for a WebSphere instance. Based on what we saw during our testing, (i.e., only stuff that gets used gets pulled into real storage) simply putting _everything_ in /lib, /lib64, /usr/lib, and /usr/lib64 would probably produce very good performance results with a minimum of system administration overhead. I would vote for keeping it.
