Cross-drilling and slotting is NOT done for cooling reasons. In fact, these methods actually decrease the mass of the disc, and in the case of cross-drilling, decrease the overall surface area as well!
The idea is to prevent the buildup of gas between the pad and the rotor under heavy braking. Obviously your brakes don't work too well when there's a cushion of air under the pads!
