Thanks for this suggestion. Yeah, I didn't notice it makes CI fail.

But a little bit of a followup question, I noticed I also should be setting these in [PATCH 5/6], but test don't fail if not set appropriately.

I just sent out version 4, but to make it really waterproof, test case 'last-modified with Bloom filters and --show-trees' also should use trace2 counters. Although I wasn't convinced it's worth it?
