Playing around with the (simple) measurement of latency-times
I noticed, that the systemcall "nanosleep" has always a minimal
latency from about ~2ms (haven't run it all night, so...). It
seems to be a systematical error.
Known issue. The x86 interrupt usually has a period of slightly less
than a ms. It will therefore generally add nearly a whole ms to ensure
that it does not ever wait for *less* than specified.
