That's excellent!

You can safely comment out the use of getticks. It's a counter that counts
the number of CPU cycles. We used it for timing small bits of code that are
called often and you need a very low overhead timing call.  Not really sure
why those unused references were left in! I think those calls were inserted
manually when someone was actively working on optimizing that bit of code.
