C Correct answer
Explanation

Larger RAM reduces the need for frequent disk I/O operations because more data and programs can reside in fast memory. When RAM is insufficient, the system must swap data to disk (thrashing), which is significantly slower than RAM access. Eliminating frequent disk I/Os improves overall processing speed.
