The actual granularity on RasPi can't be better than 52ns (the clock it's based on is 19.2MHz) and you can determine it rather precisely since you can read quite a bit faster than the clock actually ticks. On Intel it is typically around 17ns if you use TSC, but the clock it's based on is 200MHz, so you read slower than the clock ticks. If you use HPET as the clock source (14.318MHz typically, although only specified as >=10MHz), you'll see around 72ns granularity.
