With pg_test_timing I can see, that overhead is 48 nsec on my server and 32 nsec on the laptop.
what makes this difference and have it any influence on the overall performance?
Hmm - 22 nsec for my workstation, so while it could be a factor, your
laptop and my workstation performed the pgbench about the same, so I'd
look elsewhere - in particlular sync IO performance:
$ cd <where ssd mounted>
$ pg_test_fsync
5 seconds per test
O_DIRECT supported on this platform for open_datasync and open_sync.

Compare open_sync with different write sizes:
(This is designed to compare the cost of writing 16kB
in different write open_sync sizes.)
