Yes.  It is the nature of the beast.  Every time any thread hits any
mutex or other lock-like thing, every processor in the shared memory
space has to drain it's pipeline and sync all it's caches with memory.
 They all have to do this, even if the lock isn't engaged.   Just
checking it will do this.  And, to make it even worse, the more
processors you have, more expensive this is to do.
