Thank you for tests.
No it's not expected. It's fatal.
Please check if you have some dynamic CPU clock updating enabled 
Your results suggests sth like that.
If you are using KDE then you can use KPowersave to check it and
change the strategy.
And please also remember that unlike previous ones this test uses
only real time clock so it will be strongly effected by other system
activity. In multiprocessor systems it will reduce the scale factor.

best regards,
