I don't know.
If I understand correctly, rdtsc can be executed in parallen with *some*
other instructions (and places no "barrier" in the code), in which case
it could be executed at no additional cost (except the instruction fetching,
of course)
I have not yet been able to instruct GCC to use the mmx or sse3 instructions/
registers to do the shifting. Code could be reshuffeled to allow the
compiler more freedom.
