My use case for swap: 10 dev environments on a cheap-ass AWS server. Where each environment is about 5 docker images.

They are slower, but to give every branch a fully usable test system is pretty awesome. No reason to pay through the butt for RAM for tier-1 dev environments. You can also have a premium dev environment for the develop branch on a different server.
