Very interesting.
I only know of the Phoronix version of hackbench.
I ran what I believe to be a similar scenario to yours:
10 test runs each (the default is 3):

Kernel 6.19-rc8: 23.228 seconds average, deviation 0.39%
Kernel 6.19-rc8-pz-v2: 85.755 seconds average, deviation 3.33%
269% regression. (very similar to Vicent's results)

System:
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10600K CPU @ 4.10GHz, 6 cores 12 CPUs.
CPU frequency scaling driver: intel_pstate.
CPU frequency scaling governor: powersave.
HWP: enabled.
idle governor teo.
