Yeah, that's the not being able to read part..

Right.. so this seems to suggest you're migrating a lot.
Also what workload are we talking about? the insane one with 5 groups of
weight 1024?
Ramping up the frequency of the load-balancer and giving out smaller
slices is really anti-scalability.. I bet a lot of that 'reclaimed' idle
time is spend in system time.
