I didn't. I believe that is's better to run a few times and take the best run. I payed for the turbo mode CPU and I'd like to know the performance on my machine. There's a lot going on my machine, and even more when a browser is running. The only thing (besides running on a clean machine) one can do about it is to measure multiple runs. Three runs are maybe a bit to little for scientific results, but I considered them good enough for a casual benchmark.
