I imagine it refers to paging.
If yes, it allows you saving RAM space. It implies you have a multiXIP image
(i.e your image is splitted in differents .bin files). The first .bin files
contains only the minimum to start your OS. This file is mounted in RAM.
Next, you distribute the contains of your image between various .bin files
which will be accessed through paging (i.e mounted and unmounted in RAM only
when needed). With this way of working, it avoids you to have the whole
image in RAM

Pros : RAM space saving and faster boot time
Cons : potential lack of performance during execution due to paging
