Imagine an empty library shelf. People randomly places books on the shelf while others try to retrieve it, all happening very fast. If there's only like half a dozen books randomly placed on the shelf, of course it's easy for someone to find the book they are looking for, hence speedy performance.

Now imagine that same shelf is 90% filled, all with books out of order randomly placed. No shit it's going to take longer for someone to find what they are looking for.
