Weird, I used: while :; do :; done & while :; do :; done & while :; do :; done & while :; do :; done & perf stat -a -e r013c -e r013c sleep 4 killall bash Which gives: Performance counter stats for 'sleep 4': 244235699509090 raw 0x13c 244235695558036 raw 0x13c 4.005485333 seconds time elapsed And verified it used fixed counter 2 and general purpose counter 0 using sysrq-p.
