Default Slicing versus Image Maps

What is the advantage of slicing over image mapping? I see a lot of sites that will do a slice for the navigation rather than an image map. It would seem to me that loading 10 pictures would take a lot longer than loading 1. The only advantage I can see is that you could change the image as the mouse hovers over it. Is this the main reason for that, or is there something I'm missing beyond that?
