Necessary?  No,  in that it'll work without it,  but...

Significantly!

I don't know offhand what's out there in terms of OS/2 native apps,  as I'm 
still running dos/dv here,  but there was *definitely* a noticeable 
difference when I installed a packet sorter here.  Much of the time spent in 
tossing is the drive seeking to different areas,  and that's what gets 
minimized.
