So for Cog, you get this counter-intuitive result is because Cog
executes the overhead loop faster in combination with not jitting
what you wanted to test.
As the doit is *not* Jited, it executes as fast as in the intepreter case.
You see a higher percentage just because the base overhead loop
is executed faster and the thing you test gets a larger share of the
runtime.
