Would love to reproduce this, please post the full specs of the machine and os!

This machine https://www.dustin.se/product/5011255694/mini-pc-pn51

Ubuntu, latest LTS.

I bought the machine for this purpose. Guessing it was sufficiently similar to the machines running the benchmarks where I stumbled across the issue: https://plummerssoftwarellc.github.io/PrimeView/?rc=30&sc=dt...

Am I reading this right, you bought a €730 machine just to investigate why 20 lines of code occasionally runs slow?

Haha, yes, you are reading correctly. To clarify: my employer bought the machine for me to have for this purpose. They know how grumpy I get with unsolved mysteries.

What is meant by that the runs are passed through a different core?
