Both, I suppose. The weight though... something like this sea to summit mat compresses down to the size of a water bottle and is still a lot more comfortable than many types of dirt: http://www.seatosummit.co.uk/products/sleeping-mats/ultralight-mat/.

Sleeping mats, does everyone use them?
Normally I take only a sleeping bag, no tent or mat. I sleep in the dirt like a wild dog.
Is it just more weight to carry or is it an essential for you lot?
