These are nice results! Can you share all the job files or fio
invocations for each of these? I guess it's just two variants, with QD
varied between them?

We really (REALLY) should turn the nvme-wip branch into something
coherent, but at least with this we have some idea of an end result and
something that is testable. This looks so much better from the
performance POV than the earlier versions, passthrough _should_ be
faster than non-pt.
