Looks great. I remember using bpftrace at work to debug a nasty performance issue, I went down the rabbit hole only to find a certain syscall was being called much too often. We managed to trace it back inside the sourcecode to a sleep(1 second), which was some sort of manual io scheduling commited by the CTO when the startup was early stage. Removing those few lines and installing kyber fixed the issues!

Interesting, what was the storage type?
