Could you provide profiles on 9.4 and 9.5? Which kernel did you have enabled? Is /proc/sys/kernel/sched_autogroup_enabled 1 or 0?
I don’t know anything about Anton’s installation. I’m having troubles on RHEL 6 with stock kernel (2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64). I also tried a couple of non-official kernels (3.10, 3.19) but results didn’t change much.
/proc/sys/kernel/sched_autogroup_enabled doesn’t change the picture in general for 9.5 or 9.6 but improves for 9.4:
