That's interesting because it's just the opposite of what I received 4
days ago for unixbench shell1 test. I'm going to have a look:

Greeting,
FYI, we noticed a 12.3% improvement of unixbench.score due to commit:
commit: 6947ec09a6a15c9c2c2bf71d7fea7c65d54f8a33 ("sched/cfs: Make
util/load_avg more stable")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/peterz/queue.git schd/wip
in testcase: unixbench
on test machine: 192 threads Skylake-4S with 768G memory
with following parameters:
runtime: 300s
nr_task: 1
test: shell1
cpufreq_governor: performance
test-description: UnixBench is the original BYTE UNIX benchmark suite
aims to test performance of Unix-like system.
test-url: https://github.com/kdlucas/byte-unixbench
In addition to that, the commit also has significant impact on the
following tests:
