Makes sense for systems where running RAID uses more CPU time due to computing parity or uses more time to write the extra data to the RAIDed devices. I really wish that there were some intermediate data storage available for systems like this.. something cheaper than RAM but capable of storing a few gigs of data at a pretty fast rate, though not as fast as RAM. Some sort of device that would be suitable for swap files/partitions or /tmp partitions would be really nice.
