There are some specific uses cases where speed is desired at least an |

order of magnitude more than reliability. |

Some cases, that's an advantage. |

Consider a use case where having the files is a benefit, but not having |
| 13 |
the files only means that they are fetched over the network. Like a |
| 14 |
caching proxy's on disk cache. |

If the caching proxy looses it's disk cache, so what. It re-downloads |
| 17 |
the files and moves on with life. |

RAW /speed/ is more important in these types of limited use cases. |

As such, the journal is actually a disadvantage /because/ it slows |
| 22 |
things down somewhat. |
