That sounds more reasonable. Certainly they were working on optimization but it seems more likely to me that a significant part of the effort was maintenance, bug chasing, and other IT busy work. The info may actually be in the article you linked somewhere but I'm not invested enough to read it that closely.
Regardless there's no question that your point that the code was heavily optimized is valid; It really is a marvel.
