There's no explanation as to how they achieved that speed up :( it would have been better if they also wrote a post on that

From the article - it states that speed up is part of next post.

Something tells me they are calculating utilization in a non-standard way. While I have no doubt there is room for clever pipelining of data, to say you cut out all memory transfer overhead sounds ridiculous.

If they did, Zuckerberg will cut them a $5+ billion check today.
