Zero_Stage=1 results in higher TFLOPS? #48

I am learning the chronicles_prequel, and I find the last table in the chapter indicates the higher TFLOPS is achieved with Zero_Stage = 1.
Trying with ZeRO_STAGE=0/1
Zero_stage=1 could reduce the memory cost, but how come it increases the performance with other parameter being the same?
