Okay, I'm going to ignore this one. This would be 4 microsecs but there are sleep states involved, and if a piece of hardware would work only when the system went to sleep I'd call it broken...

With a cpu-hog running, cpufreq reporting 1.73GHz:

cycles: out 3446, in 2652

So this one will do I guess. The test program disables interrupts and as such, the cpu-hog shouldn't have interfered with the measurement. Thanks!
