But your description makes it sound like you do untar kernel X apply patches Y make -j Tree
I'm sorry if I'm getting you wrong, but each of these steps is variable. Even if X and Y are the same each time, "Tree" is different.
The test should be reboot N times make clean time make -j Tree
Am I misunderstaning your test?
