Actually, to my understanding, the GetTickCount() function actually has no
basis on 'real time'. It is more used as a comparison utility.

Subject: Slightly OT: GURU needed for get tick count question!


Okay

I would be grateful if any gurus out there (or non gurus) could shed some
light on the following. I have been experimenting (as you do when you're a
newbie) with the gettickcount function.

Does anyone know just how accurate the gettickcount() method is? some people
say it measures in milliseconds others say it measures cpu cycles, in
addition, when using the coldfusion debbuger there are large differences
between the page execution time and the get tick count results for the page
(assuming it does measure in milliseconds)some times the debugger will say
the page execution time is 0 but the output from my the gettick count will
output a value. Basically using the gettick count the execution time of the
page varies so i'm wondering if its effected by other processes?

comments any one?
