Repro Steps

#### Prerequisites (Build files either built locally or downloaded from payload above)
- Libraries build extracted to `runtime/artifacts` or build instructions: [Libraries README](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/main/docs/workflow/building/libraries/README.md) args: `-subset libs+libs.tests -rc release -configuration Release -arch $RunArch -framework net8.0`
- CoreCLR product build extracted to `runtime/artifacts/bin/coreclr/$RunOS.$RunArch.Release`, build instructions: [CoreCLR README](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/main/docs/workflow/building/coreclr/README.md) args: `-subset clr+libs -rc release -configuration Release -arch $RunArch -framework net8.0`

Research direction

Start with the comparison between commits 0d3df07c6048d8cbe4f544227462cae62040e587 and 93ec56ee6c38a470c6fed16b59d3f130587b1a06, then inspect performance/src/benchmarks/micro/libraries/System.Formats.Tar/Perf.Tar.cs at the listed benchmark entries. Follow the benchmarking workflow documentation and run the Perf_TarWriter filter; done means the regression is explained and the affected benchmarks no longer regress.
