<p>Hello,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I am running a 1kHz timer test on the Altera Cyclone V dev board. I am trying to measure the average time period between the timer firing, and any variance on that latency.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I'm seeing an average of 1003 microseconds between the timer firing. About once a second, I see the maximum time between the timer firing go up to 2500-3000 microseconds.</p>

<p>I'm using rtems_clock_get_uptime_<wbr>nanoseconds() to measure the time that the timer fires. I have CONFIGURE_MICROSECONDS_PER_<wbr>TICK set to 500.</p>

<p>Has anyone else seen this (or something similar)? Any ideas what might be happening here?</p>
