SDRAM load capacitance calculator

I am interfacing SDRAM IS45S32160F-7BLA2 with MPC8270 PowerPC Processor.

Input capacitance of SDRAM is 6pF per data line and i am using 4 SDRAM's which add upto 24pF of capacitance load.

Processor suggest to have a minimum loading of 20pF. 

Now the problem is current . Processor datasheet says Ioh = -2mA and Iol = 6mA. at Voh = 2.4 and Vol = 0.4

Keeping this current in mind, i=C dV/dT fails, as 20pF of load capacitance needs around 60mA and Iol and Ioh is 2 to 6mA , 

 

So how this 6mA will fullfill the requirement of 60mA of load. This load is on databus of processor.

As was mentioned before this exact query was posted on 26-FEB-2018, those are steady state currents.  What is the specification of the part for transitioning from either 10-90% or 20-80%?  That contains both a dv/dt component.
