Ignoring the fact that this article is related to Houdini/Max workflows it does explain the advantages of V-Rays 'Proxy Loader' and 'Volume Grid' clearly. My favourite aspect of the 'Volume Grid' is that it makes it exceptionally easy to remap attributes (all DCCs have slight variations on the same theme when it comes to volume attribute names).

On a more positive note, you used to be able to install the V-Ray demo for soft and freely make use of the 'Proxy Loader' without any time restrictions.
