I think that assumption is wrong. Scott will have to confirm this, but I'm pretty sure these aren't the times of individual executions of the thread. They are the times and number of thread executions between each time the code sees an edge of his incoming signal. That would seem to indicate that the incoming signal has a bunch of jitter. And he has said he is going to get the instrumentation to actually look at it and see. A real scope (as opposed to halscope) would be the best bet. -- John Kasunich jmkasun...@fastmail.fm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
