So it appears it broke somewhere between v4.0 and v4.1, as the v4.0 install
displays:
16,244,802,268 instructions ( +- 23.01% )
2.108676769 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.86% )
[a few minutes later]
Bisected it down to:
106a94a0f8c207ef4113ce7e32f34a00b3b174e7 is the first bad commit
commit 106a94a0f8c207ef4113ce7e32f34a00b3b174e7

perf stat: Introduce read_counters function
So this look like to be a regression.
