31 hq, 64 cpus (so actually just 31 sq)- but the test I ran was:
taskset -c 1 fio --name=global --gtod_reduce=1 --filename=/dev/nvme0n1 --bs=4k --rw=read --ioengine=sync --iodepth=1 --numjobs=1 --direct=1 --name=job 

I was a bit surprised at the delta I saw, but it may have been coincidental

Fair enough :)
