if i am not mistaken that is +/- 12.5%


as a theoretical exercise i would like to show how i am thinking about 
using the timer granularity for shortest acceptable run time:

if the run time is 0.0051 it will be measured as 0.01
if the run time is 0.0149 it will be measured as 0.01

we have +/- 0.0049 seconds for the same 0.01 second programs.
if i am not mistaken that is +/- 49%.
