I don't have the exact config for the previous tests but it's was just my laptop regular config whereas the new tests are x86-64 defconfig. So I think I'm just hitting some of the other OLTP regressions here, aren't I? There's some scheduler related options such as CONFIG_GROUP_SCHED and CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED enabled in defconfig that I didn't have in the original tests. I can try without them if you want but I'm not sure it's relevant for SLAB vs SLUB tests.
