2015-09-02 Thread Ivan Khoronzhuk
Current time API supposes that frequency of counter is equal to CPU frequency. But that's not always true, for instance, in case if no access to CPU cycle counter, another hi-resolution timer can be used, and it`s rate can be different from CPU rate. There is no big difference in which cycles to me
