Comment (by westonruter):

 I was confused why benchmarking server timing for the homepage with the
 theme unit test data imported showed a ''huge'' improvement in 6.9 over
 6.8. It turn out to be due to the Feed widget! When I benchmarked the
 first page of posts, I saw the huge improvement, but when I benchmarked
 the second page of posts, the large change went away. It was due to the
 "Blocks: Widgets" post being on the first page, and this post includes the
 Feed widget. When I benchmark server timing for just that one post with a
 Feed widget, the isolated improvement is dramatic:

 {{{
 npm run research -- benchmark-server-timing --url=http://wp68.local
 /blocks-widgets/ --url=http://wp69.local/blocks-widgets/ --number=100
 --diff --output=md
 }}}

 ||= URL =||= WP 6.8 =||= WP 6.9 =||= Diff (ms) =||= Diff (%) =||
 || Response Time (median) || 266.57|| 34.74|| -231.83|| -87.0%||
