This would be more meaningful if you hacked the kernel to drain the
queue figuratively to /dev/nul to eliminate the effect of auditd
draining it, or syslog covering for a missing auditd. This stat doesn't
tell us that much since the I/O act can vary significantly per
installation. That one rule you chose is pretty unnaturally abusive and
needs to be carefully thought out to avoid self-measurement.

You could do a performance measurement on a short burst, then drain the queue, but what will that actually tell us?
