> often the bottleneck is the size of the dataset rather than computation time
That's generally true for DNNs, which is a good place to be if you have lots of data. This typically isn't true for tree based approaches, which is why they fell out of fashion in some problem domains; they don't generalize as well. This paper doesn't seem to change what we already know in this respect.
