That should be average millisecs.

The first few threads take a "long" time (several hundred ms.)  The 
average lag seems to be a cumulative of what went before.  So we 
should naturally see a sharp slope until the raw data starts showing 
real lag.  This would be due to class loading and invocation of the 
JIT.
