I don't know of any smoking guns that greatly affect the system as a whole.
The only thing I know to do is to go after specific problem cases one at a
time, which unfortunately is a lot of work.

If there aren't (m)any big bottlenecks, then there must be a bunch of
smaller ones. That means that with each fix you may not get a massive
measurable improvement, maybe just above the margin of error in measuring,
which tends to slow acceptance - "Well, this doesn't make a big difference,
so its not needed."
