I've found that Perpetuem gets nasty (unpalatable) when it's been sitting or hot. Some people do make a paste out of it and use it for longer periods but when I do long races they are almost always supported and I just get fresh stuff out of the van. The only reason I could see doing that would be if you are doing a long brevet or something where you are going to be without support for long periods.
