The current code records all the waits for later use to track relation between waits and events within each context. However, since the same class is handled the same way, it'd be okay to record only one on behalf of the others if they all have the same class.
Even though it's the ideal to search the whole history buffer for that, since it'd cost too high, alternatively, let's keep the latest one when the same class'ed waits consecutively appear.
