Ferdie,
It seems you have good evidence that the bottleneck is not CPU or RAM so it
would seem likely that it is the disk I/O. There are a variety of parameters
in NSIZES that control buffers for the data that might be changed to enhance
performance. There were some suggestions made for SGI Iris systems (see
NONMEM repository) that may help.
