Or, do what I've been doing and get an accurate cycle count
for a single call and repeat about 10 times.
The first value is typically slow (loading I$), the
rest typically identical.
They can often even be matched to the expected value!
The fastest value is the one to quote!

On x86 you have to use the perf cycle counter, the tsc
is just useless.
