I knew about the possibility of buffers but I never tried them

Benchmarking complex processes like this usually generate results that
are very much tied to the configuration you benchmark with. As it says
in the conclusion "That is not to say it won't help in different
applications or with different setups".
It was tested with a very old version of osmosis (0.24 while 0.38 was
already out) and maybe you are using a different type or make of
processor.
