Right, I was thinking of things like large simulations where you need to keep a large dataset in RAM and update every datapoint at every iteration. Or maybe multiple VMs running simultaneously doing CI jobs could also do it. I don't think simple memory errors like leaks would cause it, since that would just end up filling the disk once, but wouldn't go through writes quite as fast.
