FWIW, you can instead use -F 300 or something to reduce the sampling
frequency.

I don't really see anything suspicious in the profile. This looks more
like a kernel scheduler issue than a postgres bottleneck one. It seems
that somehow using nonblocking IO (started in 9.5) causes scheduling
issues when pgbouncer is also local.

Could you do perf stat -ddd -a sleep 10 or something during both runs? I
suspect that the context switch ratios will be quite different.
