That may explain your results. I had hoped, that a real API function would do something more clever, than asm RDTSC. BTW. The time was correct on an unloaded CPU, and was running too slow on a heavily loaded CPU. One would hope, that they don't reduce clock speed under the loaded machine, while running full speed when idle. Regards, Dieter
