What was the root cause of the problem that motivated this visualization tool?

It's described in the blog post under "Origin", and the sample profile that we ship with FlameScope (examples/perf.stacks01) and which I used in the video is the first minute of the original problem.

It was intermittent latency that was hard to explain using existing tools.
