I think this is a hold over from the old days when Voyager was very likely
to crash
while writing to cache and invalidate the partition where Voyager's cache
was
located. AFS was a reasonable alternative to ram but it had its problems.
Today,
PFS 3 negates the need for such action, and Voyager seldom performs that
kind
of crash AFAIK.
