The first sort in groupByFingerprint already ensures that all resulting sample
lists contain only one fingerprint. We also already assume that all
samples passed into AppendSamples (and thus groupByFingerprint) are
chronologically sorted within each fingerprint.
The extra chronological sort is thus superfluous. Furthermore, this
second sort didn't only sort chronologically, but also compared all
metric fingerprints again (although we already know that we're only
sorting within samples for the same fingerprint). This caused a huge
memory and runtime overhead.
In a heavily loaded real Prometheus, this brought down disk flush times
from ~9 minutes to ~1 minute.
