Hi again, So I digged a little more and it turned out that the slow performance is more likely caused by the limited memory on my Loongson box (1GB), which caused a lot of biowait when the swap is involved and resulted in very slow performance overall. Opened a bug upstream to track this[1]. [1] https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/1549
