Thanks, Mel.

I guess a major difference between your testing and mine
is that I was actually running tests on CPUs sharing LLC
rather than in CPUs which are crossing several LLCs.

In the tested machine kunpeng920, 24 cores share LLC and
become one NUMA, though we have 4 numa, the benchmark was
running in one LLC domain and one NUMA only. This is supposed
to benefit those use cases using "numactl -N x tasks" to bind
tasks, which is quite common.

I also tried to reproduce tbench4 in my desktop with intel
i9 10cores(20 threads) sharing only one 20MB LLC:

The benchmark of tbenchs is still positive:

I guess something which work across several LLC domains
cause performance regression.

I wonder how your test will be like if you pin the testing
to CPUs within one LLC?
