And strangely enough, from one server reboot to another, results are not the 
same.
They can be excellent, as 01), and they can be dramatically bad, as 01b) :

I kept this "bad boot" state and performed the other tests (with lock_profiling 
stats for 10 seconds) :

If I'm lucky enough, after several reboots, I can produce same performance 
results as in test 01).
