Wouldn't expect to see such linear progression if that were the case.
Steps, over a relatively long period of time, would be the likely pattern,
no? Same goes for some other process fighting for resources. Every
iteration requiring what appears to be a fairly constant increase in
execution time (2-5ms on every iteration) seems an unlikely pattern unless
the two processes are linked in some way, I would think.
