The main advantage is that generating (all) the files can be quite slow 
and when you want get quick previews of the documentation you're working 
on, generating them on the fly is much quicker.

BTW, in the dlang.org repository you can do "make -f xxx.mak 
apidocs-serve" to get that (of course only for Druntime and Phobos).
