I got scored as really, really slow on the easy puzzles I attempted on that site, but back when the GRE was on paper, I got an 800 on that section!
I think my processing was largely subconscious, however, as I'd draw the little diagram and work out the answers to about 4 of the 6 questions they asked, then get annoyed and frustrated, turn the page, and start working on the next. Then at some point I'd flip back to the previous one and just see the answers to the final two questions, almost like magic.
Several years later I took the GRE again, and it was all on computer so you couldn't flip to the next problem and then come back, and I scored abysmally on that section. Bah!

(I flunked the logic puzzle section of the GRE--there is a hole in my brain where the logic-puzzle-solving module should be)

I suspect self-selection plays a big role in that.
