Summary: In `db_stress` profile the vast majority of CPU time is spent acquiring the `SyncPoint` mutex. I mistakenly assumed #3939 had fixed this mutex contention problem by disabling `SyncPoint` processing. But actually the lock was still being acquired just to check whether processing is enabled. We can avoid that overhead by using an atomic to track whether it's enabled.

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
