Yes, we are seeing higher system % on the CPU, not sure how to quantify in terms of % right now - will check into that tomorrow.
We were not checking the context switch numbers during our benchmark, will check that tomorrow as well.

Well, I'm seeing a higher system % on CPU than I expect (around 15% on each core), and a MUCH higher context-switch than I expect (up to 500K).
Is that anything like you're seeing?
