> clicked through the whole 200ms viz, curious if it covers connection reuse on the outbound leg. in prod the part that actually eats the budget is usually DNS + a cold TLS handshake to whatever downstream the handler calls, not the event loop itself. keepalive agents fix like half the 'mystery latency' tickets I've ever looked at.
