Seems sysbench cpu test does not slow down:
1) run sysbench cpu on idle machine:
sysbench cpu run
...
General statistics:
total time: 10.0033s
total number of events: 19052
2) start ./cl_slow_test 1 10000 in background
3) run sysbench again
sysbench cpu run
..
General statistics:
total time: 10.0036s
total number of events: 18979
So if did not slow down considerably.
If I do similar test with sysbench memory test I get following results:
1) run sysbench memory on idle machine:
sysbench memory --memory-block-size=32M --memory-total-size=100G run
...
66432.00 MiB transferred (6638.95 MiB/sec)
2) start ./cl_slow_test 1 10000 in background
3) sysbench memory --memory-block-size=32M --memory-total-size=100G run
...
672.00 MiB transferred (66.40 MiB/sec)
It confirms that memory speed is reduced 100x :(

Is it only memory accesses or does overall CPU performance degrade
(including compute - say sysbench) as well?
