When the CPU is taken away frequently, it would seem to Linux that the
CPU is slower and you get less done than before in 10 mS. But if you
read from disk then Linux will probably frequently run out of work
before its timeslice ends, so you may not see your %us stretch that
much. Considering the fact that the user/sys/idle ratio is broken
already...
