/**
 * Requesting the number of cycles from the CPU.
 *
 * `rdtsc`, or Read TimeStamp Cycle, is an instruction provided by
 * x86-compatible CPUs that lets processes request the number of
 * cycles spent by the CPU executing instructions since the CPU was
 * started. It may be used for performance monitoring, but you should
 * be aware of the following limitations.
 *
 *
 * 1. The value is *not* monotonic.
 *
 * The value is reset to 0 whenever a CPU is turned off (e.g. computer
 * in full hibernation, single CPU going turned off). Moreover, on
 * multi-core/multi-CPU architectures, the cycles of each core/CPU are
 * generally not synchronized.  Therefore, is a process or thread is
 * rescheduled to another core/CPU, the result of `rdtsc` may decrease
 * arbitrarily.
 *
 * The only way to prevent this is to pin your thread to a particular
 * CPU, which is generally not a good idea.
 *
 *
 *
 * 2. The value increases independently.
 *
 * The value may increase whenever the CPU executes an instruction,
 * regardless of the process that has issued this
 * instruction. Moreover, if a process or thread is rescheduled to
 * another core/CPU, the result of `rdtsc` may increase arbitrarily.
 *
 * The only way to prevent this is to ensure that your thread is the
 * sole owner of the CPU. See [1] for an example. This is also
 * generally not a good idea.
 *
 *
 *
 * 3. The value does not measure time.
 *
 * On older architectures (pre-Pentium 4), there was no constant mapping
 * between rdtsc and CPU time.
 *
 *
 * 4. Instructions may be reordered.
 *
 * The CPU can reorder instructions. Also, rdtsc does not necessarily
 * wait until all previous instructions have finished executing before
 * reading the counter. Similarly, subsequent instructions may begin
 * execution before the read operation is performed. If you use rdtsc
 * for micro-benchmarking, you may end up measuring something else
 * than what you expect. See [1] for a study of countermeasures.
 *
 *
 * ** Performance
 *
 * According to unchecked sources on the web, the overhead of rdtsc is
 * expected to be 150-200 cycles on old architectures, 6-50 on newer
 * architectures. Agner's instruction tables [2] seem to confirm the latter
 * results.
