Meaning netperf tells you the CPU utilization or you get it from top / uptime 
/ etc ? If so, why do you conclude this is the CPU load generated by batman-
adv ? It seems to me you are measuring the CPU load generated by netperf not 
batman-adv. 

You could disable/bypass batman-adv and repeat the test whilst using static 
routes. What is the CPU load you get then ? By comparing these 2 tests (one 
with batman-adv and one without) you could say something about the load 
generated by batman-adv.
