It seems some of perf is in the debian kernel and some isn't. So I have
to request them to include that. That might take a while.

I have a feeling but I did not write it down so I'm not 100% sure that
this problem mosly happens (starts at) 18:30 and also past 00:00. That
would make one say: then the problem is with that vm. I don't think it
is also at least one other vm/guest has this problem. Only very very
much less than this problem vm.

I'm going to make a list for when it happens.
