In general, applications are I/O bound or processor bound, meaning that the process is waiting for either I/O or everything else is waiting for the processor to finish working.
With the speed of today's CPU's, most modern applications are NOT processor bound, meaning that we're typically not waiting for the processor to finish what it's doing. Usually we're waiting for some kind of I/O process to complete.
Many times we're I/O bound when we have insufficient memory and the operating system has to "swap" an application or parts of an application out to swap space (virtual memory) on the disk. Moving an application into and out of virtual memory becomes very time consuming and is often the reason people are advised to add more Random Access Memory (RAM) to make the computer run faster.

What is input -output bound program?
input output bound program is a program (or process in precise way), which spends most of time allocated to it for execution, on input/output devices and need very small CPU time for it.

Impact of CPU utilization by increasing CPU speed?
Increasing CPU speed will maintain the current level of CPU utilization, in the case where the process mix is compute bound, or decrease CPU utilization, in the case where the process mix is I/O bound.
Distinguish between a CPU-bound process and an io- bound process?
A program is CPU bound if it would go faster if the CPU were faster, i.e. it spends the majority of its time simply using the CPU (doing calculations). A program that computes new digits of π will typically be CPU-bound, it's just crunching numbers. A program is I/O bound if it would go faster if the I/O subsystem was faster. Which exact I/O system is meant can vary; I typically associate it with disk. A program that looks through a huge file for some data will often be I/O bound, since the bottleneck is then the reading of the data from disk.
