I've received additional info of the feature by Kasper and it was not 
meant to enhance individual page rendering time...

The feature was created mostly to avoid the gigantic cache of typo3.org 
That's it: 80 000 records (1GB) MySQl table.

He also wrote that it was a mistake that 4.0RC2 had 
[FE][pageCacheToExternalFiles]=1 enabled by default.

I added a note about this on the wiki page.
