Nice; thanks for testing.

Is that with just the "part1" patch series which has been posted, or
also with the 'parallel part 2' still taking shape in the tree at
https://git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/linux.git/shortlog/refs/heads/parallel-6.2-rc6

I believe Usama said the second phase of parallelism didn't really help
much in terms of overall timing? Confirming that *without* all the
debug prints would be interesting. And we can look for what still
*could* be made parallel.
