It should be fine, just as long as you peek at it at the beginning and
end of your timing runs.  Otherwise you will get a little startup cost
into the overall measurements.  BTW: you'll need to sync the starts.

If you are interested in just general trends, just use the wall clock
time and test 0, 1 and many iterations of the code path.  That way you
can estimate fairly accurately how long things take, without going to
tremendous effort coding out the startup costs.
