To be clear, these are not my I/O servers, nor am I advocating for them.
I'm accumulating my thoughts at the following link, which also shows the
benchmark code:

https://rd.radile.com/rdweb/info2/ibmiapp02.html

fcusmstf if e k disk

The file is being opened for input, which allows for blocking of the disk
reads.

The I/O server opens it for update with no blocking.

That's reason for the difference.

The multiple layers of procedure calls are insignificant.
