Another thought that I'm having is that I wonder whether your kernel
includes the scheduler changes that are supposed to favor interactive
applications.  It seems that the kernel might think that Emacs is an
interactive application, and so it schedules Emacs quickly, hoping to
improve interactive performance.

Just a wild stab in the dark.
