Most ice climbers I've seen (me included) have kept it simple - either a single 60-70m and either walk off or do a few extra raps, or doubles (my normal choice) or maybe twins. With an 8mm double setup the weight saving - faff ratio and the extra risk of a snag makes me think it's not really worth it - I'd prefer to save the weight elsewhere.
