 On my AMD 3800 X2 (2000MHz) ULi M1697 2.6.24-rc5 i get:

It is not constant but variations are not significant afaics
Eh, oh, I guess you need to compile as a 32-bit binary...
I tried without -O2 as Nigel Cunningham...

 cycles: out 1562, in 865
 cycles: out 1562, in 866
 cycles: out 1555, in 858

With -m32 -O2
 cycles: out 1566, in 876
 cycles: out 1555, in 865
 cycles: out 1594, in 931
 cycles: out 1559, in 874

Great, thanks much for reporting. Sort of interesting in itself that without -O2 you do still get correct results on 64-bit but for some other time.

You're the first one to go significantly below 1 us it seems.

Make sure the CPU is actually running at full frequency.

It probably would have been better to have used gettimeofday() around a sufficiently big loop, so that we would have gotten wall time rather than cycles.
