For memcpy, the source pages are memset to zero only when --cycles is
used. This leads to wildly different results with or without --cycles,
since all sources pages are likely to be mapped to the same zero page
without explicit writes.
Before this fix:
$ export cmd="./perf stat -e LLC-loads -- ./perf bench \
mem memcpy -s 1024MB -l 100 -f default"
$ $cmd
2,935,826 LLC-loads
3.821677452 seconds time elapsed
$ $cmd --cycles
217,533,436 LLC-loads
8.616725985 seconds time elapsed
After this fix:
$ $cmd
214,459,686 LLC-loads
8.674301124 seconds time elapsed
$ $cmd --cycles
214,758,651 LLC-loads
8.644480006 seconds time elapsed
