Could you explain what this means?

The monitor is a series of traps which trigger execution of natively compiled code, rather than running the code through the emulator.

Just as compiled code runs faster than interpreted code, this system (the similar implementation grafted onto EMU][ is called "Rapid Emulation Engine") runs faster than a pure emulator.
