Ugh...

"IO nodes":
Pros: the name is closer to the reality, since in most cases
the nodes that would need special treatment are indeed IO nodes.
Cons: the name is not "general"...

"High nodes"
Pros: general name with kinda "hint" to the special treatment.
Cons: the "hint" is rather vague...

Bottom line - I'm OK with both options (slightly leaning toward IO),
as long as it is described well enough in the help message and in man :)
