If you're going to use sec you need to use at least 10 in order for it to be meaningful as shorter values often result in bogus numbers. Of course sec=10 takes a long time which is why cycles is the preferred method. What sort of variance do you see with cycles? Do you get the same variance for other algorithms, e.g., cbc/aes?
