Speedup is unlikely. Dirty pages aren't written to disk immediately. Well, if your archives are of considerable size AND your swap is much faster than regular storage, then you'd see benefits.

I'd advise setting up your whole system to use tmpfs backed /tmp instead of mucking around with userspace options (FUSE, etc.) Incidentally, there are FUSE filesystems to access archived content.
