I read it all! Great analysis of the situation and not a waste, IMHO.

One comment...when you ran the tests in succession, could the cache be
responsible for the timing groupings in the same test?  Should a
little program be run in between to "flush" the cache full of garbage
so each real run will miss?  Seem to recall a little program, in CUJ,
I think, that set up a big array and then iterated over it to trash
the cache.
