So turning off KPTI is the new overclocking? Good for anyone hating heavy heat in the summer. Run stock clock but disable KPTI.
Look for more syscall-heavy tests. The pure-computation workloads aren't affected at all, or not significantly.
Another "fix" could be busy-looping for a small amount of cycles in the syscall entry point, but significant enough to defeat the RDTSC side channel attack.
