IMO, LZX compression slows the ROM, since items need to be uncompressed to be accessed, but does decrease size of the ROM.
XPR compression I think is similar to LZX
UPX compression is where it's at in my book. This is done on exe's and makes them smaller AND load faster by the ROM. Only non .NET exes can be UPX'ed. there is a batch script called squeezer that I recommend
CFC - for manila. I do this and for me it makes a big difference in smoothness of manila.
my 2 cents
