My interpretation was that their problem was latency, not I/O throughput. The program cooks along using 100% of the CPU, then it needs to load a giant data set off the disk, so it has to wait (making 0% use of the CPU) while the I/O system does its job. If they could ensure that the dataset was in memory they could avoid this delay.
