You do the math how long it will take to write to disk, even if you have an ssd connected through pcie for say only a minute at full speed (which not even the ram can keep up at perfect best).
This is the "640K should be enough for anybody" mindset.
You need to be a bit more farsighted, considering Moore's Law is still working.
