Indeed the purpose is to avoid the overhead of many processes that are all nearly identical. Obviously there is some sacrifice of the traditional compartmentalization that the whole multi-server model gives you. So it's wise to use it for translators that are relatively simple and thus relatively unlikely to have bugs, since one node's use could tickle a bug causing a crash or misbehavior affecting other nodes.
