[+CC Jens as he is the block, I/O scheduler, NVMe, etc., maintainer]

Hi Tim,

[...]
> What would a more appropriate way of testing PCIe performance be?

I am adding Jens here for visibility as he does a lot of storage and I/O
performance testing on various platforms and with various hardware, he also
wrote fio[1], which I would recommend for testing over dd, and also is
a NVMe driver maintainer.  If he has a moment, then perhaps he could give
us some tips too.
