Why is not a regression?
I'm busy enough with m68k as is just to catch up and you're not making it
easier. Such repetitive task have a tendency to show up pretty high when I
occasionally run an profile test run, e.g. a much simpler vertical blank
interrupt at 50Hz is noticable. The new hrtimer code is much heavier and
runs twice as much.

bye, Roman
