I'm not a kernel guy or an expert in such things, but I see that
flamegraphs are often used to analyze such issues. It gives an idea
where the kernel is actually spending it's time.

There's also a port to help with this:

https://www.freshports.org/benchmarks/flamegraph/

I think if you could gather such information and make it available you'd
make it easier for experts to explain what is happening and maybe also
do something about this.
