Compress objects, not cache lines: an object-based compressed memory hierarchy Tsai & Sanchez, ASPLOS’19. Existing cache and main memory compression techniques compress data in small fixed-size blocks, typically cache lines. Hotpads is a hardware-managed hierarchy of scratchpad-like memories called pads.

Only in extreme circumstances does the cost (in processor time and I-cache footprint) translate to a tangible benefit - circumstances which usually resort to hand-coded assembly anyway. You're just saving a pushl, movl, an series of operations that (for obvious reasons) is highly optimized on x86. The actual overhead depends on your workload.
