Are there any up-to-date benchmarks of okhttp vs ktor-client with okhttp engine?

I'm asking because we've standardized on ktor-client everywhere, including on server use, and we're about to start using it for downloading large amounts of data / requests where we need high throughput, and I'm looking to confirm that ktor's overhead while wrapping okhttp is minimal. Some of the benchmarks from 2020 seem to imply that the difference used to be massive, and I'd like to confirm that was resolved.

Why not create a small prototype with Ktor and profile it? The problem with benchmarks is that they always measure some artificial scenario not really comparable with your use case.

Because I'm trying to save time. There are a plethora of benchmarks from 2020 that show large performance differences, and I'm curious if those have been resolved.
