It is used to determine how 'fast' the ice is. The longer a rock stays in motion, the faster the ice. Or, better put, the longer a rock takes to travel between 2 points (the back line and the T-line in the rings), the faster the ice. It may seem counter-intuitive, but if the ice is slow, you have to throw the rock harder to reach the same distance, than if it is fast. If the ice is fast, you can let the rock go gently, and it will stay in motion for a longer time, reaching the same destination, but taking longer to do it.

Where does curling play?
Curling is played in at least 45 countries (you can find a list by researching the World Curling Federation on Wikipedia). However, it is most popular in Canada, the United States, and western Europe. In places where curling is popular, there are usually dedicated curling clubs that have ice only used for curling. Where it is less popular, curlers resort to sharing multi-purpose arena ice with hockey players and skaters. This presents a challenge, because curling ice must be prepared differently than hockey/skating ice.
