    timer qustion again, on linux

    Same old question but this time I need a precise timer on linux. It should be on the level at least 10-6E sec.

    Ctime, clock, time, timeofday are not good enough to my project. I cant find a good one on Man pages....could somebody help me?

    I dont know how on linux but there should be some way of reading your RDTSC. if you search at google you may find something helpful.
    Free the weed!! Class B to class C is not good enough!!
