I have tried with X86, 48 CPUs, 2 nodes, each having 24 CPUs in LLC
+
POWER10, Multiple CPUs with 4 CPUs in LLC
+
POWER9, Multiple CPUs with 8 CPUs in LLC

I believe the extra load on this 24 core LLC could be because we may end up
trying to set the idle-core, even when there is no idle core available.

If possible, can you please give a try with v3 with the call to
set_next_idle_core commented out?
