Hi, this is cool. I was trying different calls in the 'timeme_dosomething'
procedure, is there something about sleep that would be problematic?
void timeme_dosomething(void)
{
sleep(1);
}
Waiting for fresh timer tick... done.
Timing noop for 10 seconds: completed 34319333 cycles in 10 seconds
Timing something for 10 seconds: completed 10 cycles in 10 seconds
Average time for something: 0.000000 seconds (291.381042 ns).
It gets the 10 cycles in 10 seconds right, but shouldn't the average be 1.0?
Thanks,
Tim
