The biggest advantage is to people like me who have to restart zone over and over and over while developing incrementally. Which took me about a minute each time (guh). Now I only need to process the data when it changes. Which means cold zone boot ups go from about 60 seconds to about 3 seconds.
A secondary reason (and the main motivator for me) was to make it easier to put things into shared memory if we need to. It was such an utter pain before that no one bothered to even try. It's pretty easy now though.
And of course never having to run cleanipc ever again is a nice perk.
