You might want to ask about the advantages of asking questions in the Q&A area while you're at it. :D

As far as Dalvik-cache on /cache, it's to save on system space. Compache is a way to boost performance (from my understanding, it's similar yet different to a swap setup).

You don't need A2SD or a Swap Partition for either. As for when to use it. . . well, after you've done some research.
