Dear Ken,
The time for each tick depents on the prioirity of the current thread.
For THREAD_URGENT each tick is 1 microsecond, for THREAD_NOTURG it is
64 microseconds. The function 'thread_priority()' (in Parallel C) or
F77_THREAD_PRIORITY (in Parallel Fortran) returns the current thread's
priority. By default the priority of the main program is NOTURG. You can
set it to URGENT in the configuration file by using the URGENT Attribute.
Hope this helps,
