It certainly does, though at the cost of about 4x increasing in
processing time on the sending side. See
http://xbis.sourceforge.net/performance.html for some timing results
comparing text and zip/gzip formats with a binary encoding for XML (the
IBM JVM results down near the bottom are the ones to look at - the Sun
JVM had some problem with zip/gzip that distorted those results, as
discussed in the text).
