Sure,

maxim@MAIN:~/tmp$ sudo ./port800
cycles: out 1767, in 1147
maxim@MAIN:~/tmp$ sudo ./port800
cycles: out 1774, in 1148
maxim@MAIN:~/tmp$ sudo ./port800
cycles: out 1769, in 1150
maxim@MAIN:~/tmp$ sudo ./port800
cycles: out 1769, in 1150
maxim@MAIN:~/tmp$ sudo ./port800
cycles: out 1777, in 1150
maxim@MAIN:~/tmp$ sudo ./port800
cycles: out 1766, in 1149
maxim@MAIN:~/tmp$ sudo ./port800
cycles: out 1768, in 1148
maxim@MAIN:~/tmp$ sudo ./port800
cycles: out 1765, in 1147
