I don't think Carlos and others saw your reports, because they were
not CC'ed.  I'm CC'ing them now; please make sure to reply to all of
them next time.

Carlos, please read

  https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=43389#554

for the details posted by Russel about his data points.  If you can
instruct him how to produce some analysis from the mtrace files, or
how to make them available for your analysis, please do.

Thanks.
