Should we change the way the measurement is done? We are measuring 'how many 
locks/unlocks per <certain time>'. This introduces more over head due to 
rte_rdtsc_precise call for every iteration. If we do, 'how many cycles it takes 
to do <certain number of locks/unlocks>', the over head of rte_rdtsc_precise 
can be amortized and will be very little.
