Assuming this is the test in question:

https://github.com/ColinIanKing/stress-ng/blob/master/stress-mmapaddr.c

then yes, this is expected.  The test calls mmap() and munmap() a lot,
and we've made those slower in order to fix a bug.

While it does take pagefaults (which is a better test than some
microbenchmarks), it only takes one pagefault per call to mmap() and
munmap(), which is not representative of real workloads.

Thanks for running the test.
