Research direction

The issue identifies disk metrics and shows the desired rate-based presentation, but names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the code that emits disk read and write metrics, then determine how existing metrics are represented and tested. Done means disk throughput is reported as rates rather than cumulative counts, with coverage for the new behavior.
