The problem with disabled ASLR is that you change the measurment from a statistical distribution, to one draw from a statistical distribution repeatedly. There is no going around doing multiple runs and doing an average on that.

You should mention that it is usually enough to do the following: instead of running once with PYTHONHASHSEED=0, run five or ten times with PYTHONHASHSEED in range(5 or 10). In this way, you get all benefits: not-too-long benchmarking, no randomness, but still some statistically relevant sampling.

A bientôt,
