If it were a case of only when _I_ intentionally access data, then it
would not be a big deal. My experience when I switched (almost 10 years
ago) was that so many other things got a lot faster. It gave more or
less the illusion that the whole computer had gotten faster. Then I
realized how much a bottleneck disk I/O could be. The disk is accessed a
lot, apparently.
