You are doing measurements on a virtual machine... For sure you are not the only user that has active workloads on the physical machine while you do benchmarks :)

On the other hand, the path you are going with just LTO is nice for experiments, but for real-world usages is not feasible. Using it in conjunction with PGO is the way to have the best Python interpreter, and I strongly recommend for you to use the v04 versions of the patches.
