[...] The 2Kbit section has me wondering about the accuracy of these timings, as "CoW, no Move" outperformed "CoW, Move", which should definitely not be the case. I can't think of any circumstance where move emulation gives you a penalty...
Those specific timings were close enough (within 0.03 seconds of each other) that they may well be within the margin of error. It's essentially impossible to do completely accurate timings on a multitasking OS.
I think an equally important measure would be the # of allocation requests. Do you track those?
