I cannot guarantee it will help, but the global -T option to pin netperf or netserver to a specific CPU might help cut-down the variables.

FWIW netperf top of trunk omni tests can now also determine and report the state of SELinux. They also have code to accept or generate their own RFC4122-esque UUID. Define some connical tests and then ever closer to just needing some database-fu and automagic testing I suppose... things I do not presently posess but am curious enough to follow some pointers.

happy benchmarking,
