OK, will see how to do that.

In the meantime, I just tried to reproduce on my own desktop:
Sandybridge i7-2600 CPU @ 3.40GHz and it reproduced:
$ cat 4.7.0-rc6-01198-ga6c2f792873a/0/netperf.json
{
  "netperf.Throughput_Mbps": [
   752.9450000000002
  ]
}
$ cat 4.7.0-rc6-01197-g826d253d57b1/0/netperf.json
{
  "netperf.Throughput_Mbps": [
   1068.5556249999997
  ]
}
