Cold starting as indicator of compression

Hello,

I have a 240D with 265000miles and a 5 year old battery. I've been suprised at how easy it has started in 15-20 degree weather recently. This was with number 2 diesel with powerservice added. No block heater. I'm curious about the engine compression and wondering if I can conclude from the above that it is likely satisfactory. Appreciate any thoughts.

Thanks,

Kevin
