Or in the other way, could you share the perf data files?

Base on the perf data files, I think at least we can confirm what's the
AUX trace data size for every period, and we might also can quickly
confirm if the strobing configurations are lost or not in the middle of
tracing (To be honest, I have no knowledge for strobing, so need Mike's
help for confirmation).
