I was not quite able to reproduce these values, probably because I got the math wrong. I used: $oneSecond = $ticksJiffie * $HZ / 1193182 which yields 11932*100/1193182 = 1.00001508571198693912, !=1.000015238 Math corrections welcome. Anyway, I've done some graphs. Intersting that the smaller the HZ, the less error (seen on a whole, esp. view_1k and view_8k.png) we get. 20Hz seems to be the 0.0 case, and 18Hz is not bad either. IIRC, DOS used 18HZ ;) http://jengelh.hopto.org/tick/ Jan Engelhardt -- | Alphagate Systems, http://alphagate.hopto.org/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
