I tried -v13. However the scheduling "error" is now 10% (vs 2% with -v12).

I also noticed strange behaviour with CPU hotplug. I offlined cpu1
(echo 0 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online), and the typing speed on
my terminal decreased noticably. I could hardly type something there.
The system was otherwise idle (running in Xorg, and gnome-terminal).
As soon as I started massive_intr.c workload, the keyboard typing
speed became normal again.  If I have a workload running, while I
offline a CPU the keyboard is fine after cpu1 is offlined.
Also the entire system froze once, when I offlined cpu1. I couldn't
reproduce this.

I don't know how -v12 behaved wrt to CPU hotplug.

Results with -v13:

Interesting, massiv_new has better precision than massiv_orig.

Just in case it helps, here's me /proc/sched_debug (when system is
idle, and later, when running the test):
