Would you happen to have 2 instance and 4 instance SPECjbb
numbers, too? The single instance numbers seem to be within
the margin of error, but I would expect multi-instance numbers
to show more dramatic changes, due to changes in how workloads
converge...

Those behave very differently from single instance, especially
with the "always set the preferred_nid, even if we moved the
task to a node we do NOT prefer" patch...

It would be good to understand the behaviour of these patches
under more circumstances.
