Pardon my 2nd email, it is irrelevant.
Back to the o.p.: I just checked https://yade-dem.org/wiki/Performance_Test
And the results are somehow similar, large times are allotted to force
resetter in parallel executions of "yade --performance".
So it is _not_ a recent regression.
Something noticeable in Alexander's timing is that the rel time of the
resetter decreases when the number of time iterations is decreased.
It seems there is a constant cost at play in the first iteration. The
cost seem to approach 10% for longer simulations, that's ok maybe.

Hi Bruno,
do you think that the problem exists for a while or when did openMP
issues arise?

Wait...
Now I realize that the timings are weird. Real times are the same,
relative times are different.
It could be that the counting is wrong. Something system/hardware
dependent.
We have troubles with openMP at the moment. So forget it.
Thanks for the link anyway Anton.

Hi Bruno,
the only more-less relevant commit is the following [1]. Try to comment
that line and check, whether the regression is no more visible. If it
is so, that problem (described in commit log) should be solved by
more elegant way.
