Without knowing how exactly the benchmark works I would guess that most
of those apache requests are kernel calls so SELinux _might_ make a huge
difference here. Perhaps somebody from the SELinux team should tell
phoronix about it (and to _always_ test with SELinux disabled to measure
the price of security).
