PSI is always enabled in Ubuntu 20.04. For a test system with 72 guests on 8 cores running a nginx workload this created an overhead of ~1%.
Can we change this back to CONFIG_PSI=y CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED=y
so that by default the overhead is not there but for debugging or if needed it can still be enabled via kernel parm?
Maybe there has been a reason for this - so feel free to discuss.
