C The lower 32 bits are set by the hardware, and the upper 32 bits are set C by the operating system. The real per-process cycle count is the sum of C these halves. C Unfortunately, some operating systems don't get this right. NetBSD 1.3 is C known to sometimes put garbage in the upper half. Whether newer NetBSD C versions get it right, is unknown to us. C rpcc measures cycles elapsed in the user program and hence should be very C accurate even on a busy system. Losing cache contents due to task C switching may have an effect though.
