This is my understanding as well. Rare is the day I’ve solved a production firefight by editing some algorithm - it’s almost always arcane configuration, restarting services in the right order, some network thing flapping/dos-ing the rest of the system, some service aggressively restarting and dos-ing others, actual malevolent dos, noisy neighbors, resource starvation, etc.
