Here 448554 is the average value of will-it-scale.per_process_ops for commit 5b8809deb4,
while 174892 is the average value of will-it-scale.per_process_ops for commit c4c3c3c2d0,
metric per_process_ops is calculated through raw output of will-it-scale as below
example.
2017-10-14 23:43:02 ./runtest.py context_switch1 295 process 44
tasks,processes,processes_idle,threads,threads_idle,linear
0,0,100,0,100,0
44,7723745,22.45,0,0.00,0
per_process_ops = 7723745 / 44 = 175540
percent -61% is computed by (174892 - 448554) / 448554
