Hello again,
after archange and Baptiste mentioned that the numbers look a little odd, I

Most notably, this includes -T2 - to show behavior on lower-spec machines, and

Hello all,
in the past few weeks, some TUs and Developers have compared different

Attached here is the script i wrote to make most of these measurements, for
anyone interested in reproducing these results - and the raw results of the
benchmark.
Read it before running it. You may need to make adjustments.

If the known issues are solved and nothing major comes up, the deployment will
happen as planned.
