I think you are describing the pessimal pointer chasing case, that should be the smaller figure.

Yes, it should be lower. Yet there is a lower figure estimated for a mixed worlkoad.

"A more realistic application might consume 5 GB/s at 144 Hz which is just 69 MB per frame."

But, now I see what it's about: tje 7 GB/s figure is for 6 threads, for 1 thread he gets 2 GB/s.
