My bad, I uploaded the wrong data :-/
I uploaded again:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49uX3igf4K4UFI4TEQ3THYta0E

And I just run the base tree with trace-cmd and found that its
performace drops significantly(from 1000MB/s to 6xxMB/s), is it that
trace-cmd will impact performace a lot? Any suggestions on how to run
the test regarding trace-cmd? i.e. should I aways run usemem under
trace-cmd or only when necessary?

Thanks,
Aaron
