That seems weird. Why do most of the runs show primary and standby
as having comparable speed, but a few show the standby as much slower?
The parameters for those runs don't seem obviously different from cases
where it's fast. I think there might have been something else going on
on the standby during those runs. Or do you think those represent
cases where the mystery slowdown event happened?
