Hi, For what its worth, i can easily reproduce the script takes fairly long (about ~50 seconds on my vm's) to complete on both Ubuntu 14.04 and Fedora 21, both with the distro supplied binaries and a recent master. I ran the script using strace -f. It shows a lot of calls on futex( 'FUTEX_WAIT_PRIVATE'), though im not sure how relevant that may be. I attached the strace output. - Maarten
