 // TODO The Envoy numbers goes down in 1.9, check for the latest data with next version of Istio.
 The data plane components, the Envoy proxies, handle data flowing through the system. The control plane component, Istiod, configures the data plane. The data plane and control plane have distinct performance concerns.

 The actual tail latency depends on the traffic pattern.
