With drywall mud you'll notice there are different dry times. That's the chemicals helping it dry (sometimes you can feel the heat from it). With standard mud, the drying is only the water evaporating. That's why it shrinks when it dries, part of the volume is evaporating away. With the fast mud it doesn't shrink as much and dries harder.
Back to this product, while not a 1:1 comparison some of the same applies. I don't think it molds like drywall mud, but the chemical mix kind doesn't shrink as much and dries harder.
I guess I should take back my initial comment because I said "you're better off" which isn't necessarily true. It's based on need and project. For instance, this stuff would work great for nail hole filling and sanding (so does drywall mud BTW). But when I think of wood filler I'm thinking more of repair where it is damaged or starting to rot. In those cases the mix kind is a better choice.
