Emacs actually monitors the directory of every file whose buffer has
auto-revert-mode turned on, if you use file notifications for
auto-reverting (which is the default).

Does "a bit of I/O" includes creating, deleting, or modifying files in
a directory where you have a file whose buffer has auto-revert-mode?

Turn off auto-revert-use-notify and try again, would be my advice.
