I'm quite happy with tctimer, posted 31 Oct 89 by cahalan@iris613.gsfc.nasa.gov,
(Goddard Space Flight Center Climate and Radiation Branch)--it allows sub-
microsecond timing (something like 890nS resolution); one function returns
a long integer--timer ticks, another converts to seconds or microseconds and
returns a double.  The writes only to the timer chip--to change the resolution.
I'll email a copy to anyone who needs it.
