Have you tried QueryPerformanceCounter (and the associated
QueryPerformanceFrequency) ? I use it to do cpu load calculations when
streaming through pvoc processes. The ordinary Windows timer functions
are known to be somewhat wobbly.

Question to the Windows gurus (or the best the list has in that

How do I get decent timing on Windows?
I've got PortMIDI working. The test app currently plays C-Major chords
at a user-configurable tempo, accentuating the first beat of the bar
(user-configurable bar length--whoopee).
I've got a cross-platform timing architecture sitting on top of the
Windows Multimedia timer API, which claims something approaching
millesecond accuracy. Sounds more like +/- 80ms. Hell, I've had
beginner piano pupils play with a better groove.
There's got to be a better way.
Any general tips, or anyone prepared to look at some code?
Hopefully,
Peter
