Discharge lamps that contain XE not as a buffer gas but for creating light (spectrum completion) need to have at least 60 bar/870 psi when at operating temperature.

@StefanE: In automotive MH lamps, the xenon is there to provide minimal amount of light at turning on, so it is a buffer gas, and isn't produces light once the mercury and the halides evaporated.
