Yes, very nice.
A improvement suggestion: the system load / cpu pin characteristics
should be generic, and not specific to this particular test. Because
other tests also benefit from it (one obvious candidate is migration) ?
Regarding timedrift, it should know if there is an ntp client running on
the guest (now whether ntp configuration should be part of the testcase,
or should belong outside of it, independently somehow, i'm unsure).
Its necessary to measure with/without ntp client.
