The scaled cputime is supposed to be derived from the normal per-thread
cputime by dividing it with the average thread density in the last interval.
The calculation of the scaling values for the average thread density is
incorrect. The current, incorrect calculation:
Ci = cycle count with i active threads
T = unscaled cputime, sT = scaled cputime
sT = T * (C1 + C2 + ... + Cn) / (1*C1 + 2*C2 + ... + n*Cn)
The calculation happens to yield the correct numbers for the simple cases
with only one Ci value not zero. But for cases with multiple Ci values not
zero it fails. E.g. on a SMT-2 system with one thread active half the time
and two threads active for the other half of the time it fails, the scaling
factor should be 3/4 but the formula gives 2/3.
The correct formula is
sT = T * (C1/1 + C2/2 + ... + Cn/n) / (C1 + C2 + ... + Cn)
