Host file is useful in several ways, lets say you have a web server and you receive a delay in bringing up you page, what is happening in this case is your request to your server has to wait for a ack request from your server this takes a moment to receive. You can eliminate this hand shake by creating a host file the old way was creating a spider file which is tedious code writing.
Download tweakDun v3 and create your host file, here you can insert all your websites/fav and doing this you are eliminating that hand shake that occurs when connecting to a website. This is very useful for a webserver
