we double confirmed the latency_95th_ms data is stable in multi runs on our
test platform (Ice Lake).
however, we cannot gurantee the regression could be reproduced on another test
machine.
our team's goal is to report issues (both performance and func) we observed in
our tests to community to help author/community to review then improve code
quality if possible. so just FYI. it's up to author/community to judge the next
step.
regarding this report, if you want to dig further, we will be very happen to
do further tests if you give us some debug patches. Thanks a lot!
