Hi Finn,

Maybe the timer interrupt has a sufficiently high priority and latency is
low? Maybe cia_set_irq() is really expensive?
I don't know the platform well enough so I'm inclined to revert. We can
benchmark gettimeofday syscalls on elgar but is that hardware
representative of other relevant models?
I suppose the CIA is on the main board, so running with the slower clock
speed that you'd see with a vanilla Amiga without 060 accelerator board.
Ought to be representative enough?
Adrian has a few other Amigas with different hardware base, so we might
be able to get test coverage on more than one model.
Cheers,
Michael
