Description

CPU cycle measurement helps benchmarking and cryptographic software time very small pieces of code. The library focuses on reading processor counters in a portable way across supported systems.

This is a developer-facing dependency, not a system monitor for everyday use. Results can be hardware-sensitive, so measurements should be interpreted carefully when comparing different CPUs or power-management states.
