Can you propose a simpler syscall on the GENERIC kernel that could be
used instead of getpid()? Unixbench is easily patched so the theory I
put out can be easily checked.



So it is using getpid? It should be fine on FreeBSD with the previous provisos, but you also need to check Linux behaviour and compare on identical hardware before you can draw conclusions.
