I originally posted this question on comp.unix.ultrix but have gotten no
responses.

I am using the difference between two gettimeofday() calls to measure
real-time performance.  What is the number of microseconds added each
time the clock ticks.  

This question applies to 2100, 3100, and 5000 MIPS DECstations running
Ultrix 4.*.
