Per the blog post itself, all operations operated locally in RAM except for some asynchronous backing up to permanent media. He didn't mention network I/O at all, because most likely, the web apps were local (see: Chrome packaged apps.)
In any case Chrome OS's current architecture is completely different from the version he laid out. It doesn't run completely in RAM; instead, it relies on SSD's in most cases to reduce file I/O times.

- Andrex 14y agoI didn't say they were Chrome packaged apps, but that they were like them. He even says as much: "That's how the seeds of the webapps on the Chromium desktop, albeit originally written in HTML and running on Firefox, were planted."
