Dagger Rogues would be an easy example, you're probably doing damage every 1.3-1.5 seconds on top of things like Deadly Poison and instants, meaning every single time I do an attack it has to update the UI, ect. With polling instead of updating 4-5+ times it could wait 5-10 seconds which cuts down on how many times you have to broadcast/update dramatically over 5-10+ minute fights.
Well, your "theory" isn't borne out by the facts. Already Omen uses far less cpu time in combat than KTM.
