Can you explain those numbers a bit? You mean that in (14.37/11.31)
without this patch your test workload (NAS Parallel Benchmarks) took
14.37 seconds to complete and with the patch applied it took 11.31
seconds?
If so its really interesting that all the "after" numbers, in seconds,
are the same in _all_ the tests, is that right?
Please clarify.
