examining the ``ds.stats()`` output (``In batch formatting`` under
``Batch iteration time breakdown``). If this time is significantly larger than the
time spent in other steps, one way to improve performance is to decrease
``local_shuffle_buffer_size`` or turn off the local shuffle buffer altogether.
